Registry hack

Just like Command Prompt Here, I want a Create Folder Here command on my Explorer menu.

If Command Prompt Here takesv the form of:
c:\winnt\system32\cmd.exe /k cd %1

then what's the syntax for Create Folder Here? I tried:
c:\winnt\system32\cmd.exe /k md %1

What I really need, I think, is to first change to %1, then md %2. Would be that your guess and, if so, can you jog my memory as to how to place two "DOS" commands on the same line so they run in succession?

I know.... that extra step when you do New | Folder is just a killer.

Sorry, I guess I don't have anything of value to add. I just don't see the real point of something like this when it's already pretty quick to do.
 
What kind on a (non-) answer is that? Sheesh....

I have a very good reason why I want this. I know it can be done. I just forget the syntax for placing two DOS commands on the same line, that's all.

Now, are we going to be *helpful*, or just snipe at folks who came here looking for real answers to real questions?
 
You could do something like this:

C:\WINNT\system32\cmd.exe /k md %1\NewFolder

That should create a new subfolder called "NewFolder" underneath the argument. Of course, it will fail if "NewFolder" already exists, but for the most part it should work.
 
Can someone make a registry hack where I don't even have to right click... I just think about a new folder and there it is.

Lets get on this ASAP.

If you don't have anything usefull to add, don't post. Thread crapping will make your stay here very short.

Your answer is 'No' and he's on his high horse because he's a long-time elite member rather than a guy who signed up last week with no profile.
 
Ya know... I may be new to this particular forum, but I am by no means wet behind the ears. So far, only one respondent offered anything *remotely* useful, and that was just a WAG, nothing more. A little Googling coughed up the answer I sought yesterday, no thanks to the majority of you who have nothing better to do than to completely turn off newcomers to this forum.

AnandTech may have some useful features and such, but this is the last I'll bother posting to any forums herein. There are simply too many other places on the 'Net where "those in the know" fall all over themselves to provide useful, accurate tips and information?thus demonstarting their experience, intelligence, and kindness?instead of telling "the guy who joined last week and has no profile" that his idea is a waste of time, should not be pursued, and, in general, making fun of me.

I think that if you reread the thread you'll see that bsobel and Robor were directing their comments at thread-crapping - that is, they were asking other people to stick to your topic and not make comments about the value of your question.

Don't be so quick to slam a whole forum on the basis of a couple of people's posts.

And that somehow proves to me his total 1337 h4x0r skillz?!

Stop swinging from his nuts.

What post count is equal to an MCSE or CCNA? I someday hope to attain that number... then i can be "Elite" too.
 
I'm not so sure you can place 2 commands on one line.

You may try meshing them into one?

Maybe like this?

c:\winnt\system32\cmd.exe /k cd %1 md 2%

Just a guess. Trial and error here will eventually work it out.
