Command Prompt to Folders (W2K)

[Robert Foster]

When using the tweak
"Add command prompt to every folder"
I do not like the command prompt with the abbreviated characters.
Such as C:\PROGRA~1>
for C:\Program Files\

I like this much better
C:\Program Files>

The tweak opens a command processor and does a CD to the respective directory.
If you substitute the entire path to the command processor, (in the registry tweak)
you will have the full names of the folder listed,

For Windows NT, 2000 or XP, the default reg edit is
cmd.exe /k cd %1

Change this to (your default "system root"\system 32 directory\cmd.exe)
Default systems are
\winnt\system 32\cmd.exe
So the resulting tweak would be

c:\winnt\system32\cmd.exe /k cd %1

I tried this and it worked except that I got the statement "The system cannot find the path specified," as the very first line inthe command prompt window.
