Open Cool Prompt

A windows utility that loads cmd prompt for a folder by right-clicking on it.

Was created by me almost 3 years back(August 04, 2009). Decided to upload it today(July 4, 2012).

How to install?

To install double-click or execute the file named Install.VBS.

What will be installed?

Once installed there will be shortcuts in Desktop and Start Menu folders. Also a context-menu(i.e., right-click menu) is added. It could be seen only when user right clicks on a directory. This context-menu is added through Windows registry.

How to uninstall?

Similar to installing process, to unistall double-click or execute the file named Uninstall.VBS.

What will be uninstalled?

All Registry entries and shortcuts will be deleted. The script, batch and READ ME files(this document) needs to be deleted by the user.

Uses of this application:

  • For programmers this application serves as the quick access to any directories where is not registered in PATH variable so that he/she can run executables found in that path. Good example is Cobol-85 Standard compiler which cannot be run even with PATH variable set outside its own directory.

  • For other users, this application can be used for multitude of tasks such as to command-line based audio/video encoding/transcoding, copying, deleting files within the selected directories, etc ...
