Jayenkai	Tip of the Century. Type ’’cmd’’ into the address bar of a Windows Explorer folder view to open Command Prompt directly in that folder. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

steve_ancell	I never knew that.

shroom_monk	Furthermore, the shortcut Alt+D will focus the address bar, so you can open the command prompt from Explorer without ever needing to touch the mouse! -=-=- A mushroom a day keeps the doctor away... Keep It Simple, Shroom!

Jayenkai	Who needs GUIs!!!?

Dabz	That's a top tip is I've ever seen one! Dabz -=-=- Intel Core i5 6400 2.7GHz, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 (8GB), 8Gig DDR4 RAM, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD, Windows 10 64bit

Jayenkai	It constantly amazes me how Microsoft continue to add features, but tell nobody!!!!! We have to work this shit out. Once upon a time, we'd get a great big manual. I want that back!!! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

cyangames	I still have a windows 3.1 manual somewhere around the house. Probably next to my early 80's Usborne Computer Handbook. -=-=- Web / Game Dev, occasionally finishes off coding games also!

Dan	Hey, Win3.1 and 95 are runable in dosbox on my win10 pc ^^; But typing CMD in the Address bar is new to me too. What happens if you write it in the Edge's address bar ? ;o)

rockford	Edge? Surely the only reason to use Edge is to download a good browser?

Dan	Surely the only reason to use Edge is to download a good browser? I'm using SrWare iron here. Mentioned Edge, because it is from Microsoft. But the joke, which needs explaining is not a joke

Jayenkai	When coding new SoCoder and new AGameAWeek, I actually found Edge invaluable. It whinged about fucking everything!!!! ... it doesnâ€™t actually then follow the many html/css/javascript rules it complains about, but at least it's great for finding the issues!! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

HoboBen	IIRC you can Shift+Right Click a folder to get more options (like "open command window here") from Windows 7. Everyone probably knows that one though! -=-=- blog \| work \| code \| more code

Jayenkai	Yeah, but by the time I'm in a folder, that's no good! I'm far too lazy to go up to the parent, right click the folder, then go back into the folder again!! That's, like, 4 clicks!!! Either that or daring to hit the Backspace key to go up a folder, which doesn't always go up a folder, because some idiot at Microsoft decided to make it go "Back" instead of "Up" -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

HoboBen	I know right! You can shift right click the folder you are in to do it, but ONLY if there aren't enough files to fill the window so that there is space to do it in. Typing CMD is gonna be way easier so thanks haha -=-=- blog \| work \| code \| more code
