Add "Copy To.." and "Move To..." in right click in windows


Add “copy to” and “move to” options in right click

It is hard to move or copy a file/s or folder/s to specific location. There is a option called “Send to” on context menu but it has some limitation. You can send content through it just few locations like.. My Documents, Floppy Disk etc. If You can add “Copy to” and “Move to” options on Right click(context menu) then it will increase your file/folder transfer facility. You can Copy and Move your content anywhere on your machine through Right click(context menu). I have described a registry trick following here.

Copy-paste following text in notepad and save it with .reg extension. Then just merge/run it. You will get 2 new options on your Right click(context menu).

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex \ContextMenuHandlers]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex \ContextMenuHandlers\Copy To] @=”{C2FBB630-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}”

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex \ContextMenuHandlers\Move To] @=”{C2FBB631-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}”

save it with whatever name you want as shown
