How to open a terminal quickly from a file explorer at a folder in Windows 7?
- Hold Shift + Right Click the folder you want it opened on, and click "open command window here". That should do the trick!
OR
- You can also type
cmd
into the Windows File Explorer address bar (use Ctrl+L to focus the address bar) and press Enter to open the shell.
You can type cmd
in Windows Explorer's location bar (which you can edit with the keyboard shortcut Alt+D); it will open a terminal upon pressing Enter.
Personally I use a voice command in Dragon NaturallySpeaking that takes care of it:
Code:
Sub Main
SendKeys "%d"
Wait(0.1)
SendKeys "cmd"
Wait(0.1)
SendKeys "{ENTER}"
End Sub
Press Ctrl+L. This will allow you to edit the location bar address of the file explorer. Type 'cmd' and press enter. This will open command prompt in current folder.
