JSKY Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Here's a trick that I don't think many people are aware of. Right-click on any folder in Windows Vista while holding down the shift key. You'll see an extra context-sensitive menu item there: Open Command Prompt here. Just click on this menu and a command window will open with the current working directory set to the folder's actual location.What's neat about this is that if the target folder is a network location, Windows Vista silently maps a network drive to that location before opening the folder (so that your command prompt has a valid path containing a drive letter) and then deletes the network drive once the command prompt is closed.
