Copy and paste or cut and paste is something we often do if we manage our files. Sometimes we should move from one directory to another to do so. Imagine if we should manage a lot of files. It will be a hard work because we should move from one directory to another for many times.

To make it easier when we should copying and moving files, we can create a copy to folder and move to folder context menu in Windows Explorer. With this context menu we don’t need to move between directories. Here’s the steps:

1. Open Notepad by clicking Start Menu and point to Accessories and click Notepad.
2. Then type the code bellow:
   Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
   [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTAllFilesystemObjectsshellexContextMenuHandlers]
   [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTAllFilesystemObjectsshellexContextMenuHandlersCopy To]
   @=”{C2FBB630-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}”
   [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTAllFilesystemObjectsshellexContextMenuHandlersMove To]
   @=”{C2FBB631-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}”
3. Save it as Registration Entries by clicking menu File => Save As. On the Save As dialog choose All Files on the Save Type As option. Then give it’s name whatever you want but with .reg extention. For example “CopyMove.reg” (without quote). Click save button to save it.



4. After those code saved, execute it then a message box will appear. Click Yes button on it. Another message box will appear if it succesfull and everything is done.

Now you have a Copy to Folder and Move to Folder on your Windows Explorer context menu. Try to right click a file to know it’s working or not. If you need the Registration Entries file, you can download it here. Extract the downloaded file and execute it.
