Would you like to be able to copy or move a file without having to open up Windows Explorer just each time?

Well you can copy or move a file directly from a right-click menu, just by doing this:

Launch REGEDIT, go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex and select ContextMenuHandlers.

Right click on ContextMenuHandlers and choose New Key and call it  "Copy To" (without the quotes).

In the right hand side of the console, double click on the default entry and enter the value {C2FBB630-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13} (including the curly bracers).


Right click on ContextMenuHandlers again and choose New Key and call this one "Move To" (without the quotes). Give this one the default value {C2FBB631-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}.

Now when you right-click a file, you will have 2 new options. Copy To and Move To. When you choose either option a pop-up window will appear where you can select the destination folder.
