Hello,
Windows 10 allow to open a poweshell window by  shift + right clic on a directory.
I want a dos windows and i find a method writing the registry,code is in the zip.
The cmd is a batch calling  "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe %1"
Problem the directory is passed or not , any idea ?

Yves,

I had a look at the registry file you attached but I don't understand what you are trying to do.

Usually CMD.EXE will give you the default Win10 prompt and from that you can run powershell if you need to.

I use this with Windows 7

Code Select Expand

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\*\shell\Open With cmd\command]
@="\"cmd.exe\" \"/k \"%1\"\""

Hi Timo,

Thanks, that's a nice registry tweaking. Converting the registry entry to a batch file :

Code Select Expand

Reg.exe add "HKCU\Software\Classes\*\shell\Open With cmd\command" /ve /t REG_SZ /d "\"cmd.exe\" \"/k \"%%1\"\"" /f

Put it in C:\Users\ToutEnMasm\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo

Code Select Expand

include \masm32\include\masm32rt.inc
.code
start:
  invoke WinExec, chr$("cmd.exe"), SW_RESTORE
  invoke ExitProcess, 0
end start

After some tests:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\CmdPrompt]
@="Command Prompt"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\CmdPrompt\command]
@="\"C:\\OpenDosPrompt\" \"%1\""

--------------- batch OpenDosPrompt.bat in c:\----------------------
CD %1
C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe

And the dos windows open on the directory you have right clic

For Windows XP :

Code Select Expand

REG ADD "HKCR\Directory\shell\Command Prompt Here\Command" /f /t REG_SZ /ve /d "cmd.exe /k cd %%1"
