    Restore "Command Prompt Here" in folder context menu


    After the installation of the latest windows 10 update, I was very annoyed my "Command Prompt Here" has disappeared again from the right mouse button menu, after I took a lot of effort to restore it.


    Windows Powershell is not an option for me, as it wreaks havoc on character encodings, and I have numerous scripts that I will need to adjust.


    The instructions to restore it are extremely complex, as if it is intentionally made hard. (see e.g. https://www.itprotoday.com/windows-10/add-open-command-window-here-windows-10-context-menu). Why can't Microsoft stop breaking my configuration with every update?


    Can you please help me restore it, provide an easy to access setting to restore it, or give me an option to downgrade, so I get my "Command Prompt Here" menu option back.

    :)

    Comparing the screenshot of the context menu against mine shows a few differences suggesting third-party software/programs are installed that added to the menu.
