Open Command Window Here on Vista - No PowerToy needed
Here comes Windows Vista and ads this very useful shortcut to the DEFAULT installation inside Windows Explorer's context menu!
Open a Windows Explorer windows, browse to the required folder.
Right-click that folder in the right pane of the Windows Explorer window. Note that you do NOT have the "Open Command Prompt Here" option.
Now, hold the SHIFT key while you right-click the folder. Behold!
Note: As in most cases, Microsoft has only gone part of the way with this cool feature. It's silly but this context menu add-on in only available when you right-click on the folder in the right pane, and not in the left pane or in a My Computer window...
A cool feature of this context menu add-on is that in case of a network share it will automatically and silently map a drive to that share, and disconnect the mapped drive when the Command Prompt closes.
