You've actually always(at least since W2K) been able to get the "open command prompt" option by holding Shift when right-clicking in a folder, and I think there's some tweak deep down in the bowels of Windows that turns it on permanently.
- joeyespo 15y agoWow didn't know about that, thanks. I've been using AHK for that too. Press Win+C and a prompt will open at that location. It's much faster than shift-clicking through a menu. I wonder how many others knew about the "open command prompt" who really did need it. Revealing it in the Ribbon is a double-win then, because now you immediately know it's there and you can now also use a keyboard shortcut.
