    CMD in context menu for all Windows explorer folders


    Bold word 'cmd' is at top of the folder context menu and left click on any folder results in Windows trying to open the folder using the program 'cmd'.and generates error message.* Right click on the folder displays context menu and 'open' opens the folder properly. How do I remove 'cmd' from the menu?

    *Error message: 'This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program, or, if one is already installed, create an association on the Default P'rograms control panel.

    :)

    How to Open folder in a selected application (send folder contents to)

    Type shell:sendto in File Explorer's address bar and press Enter. Anyway you don't even need to waste time placing shortcuts in SendTo because Winamp itself can add context menu items to folders.

    As per the help page
    here    , go to Winamp's Preferences > General Preferences > File Types > Explorer Settings and enable
    Show Winamp in folder context menus in Windows Explorer (Official description: Select this if you want "Play in Winamp" etc. added as an option in the Windows Explorer right-click context menu for folders.)

    If you have the Jump To File Extra plugin (gen_jumpex.dll) installed you can also look at Shell Options > Windows Shell File Association Options >
    Windows Explorer Menu Control to further customize the folder context menu items.

    CMD in context menu for all Windows explorer folders

    Hello Joninrockies, and welcome to Ten Forums. *Smile

    If you like, you could download and merge the .reg files for the Folder and Directory items in the table of OPTION TWO in the tutorial below. It will restore the default association of them for you.
