Richard,
autoexec.bat has nothing to do with it.
Uninstall Command Window Here and get this..
26. Add Command Line to the Right Click
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm
It adds two registry entries...
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Command Prompt Here]
@="Command &Prompt Here"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Command Prompt Here\command]
@="cmd.exe /k cd %1 "
-----
The only lines in autoexec.bat that Windows XP will read are the lines that
begin with SET or PATH. *If* ParseAutoexec is set to 1. Otherwise XP
ignores autoexec.bat completely.
When this value is enabled the variables listed in the Autoexec.bat file
will be parsed and included in the current user environment.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Value Name: ParseAutoexec
Data Type: REG_SZ
Data: 0 or 1
0 : Ignores Autoexec.bat at logon.
1 : Parses Autoexec.bat at logon.
This has no effect on the parsing of AUTOEXEC.NT or CONFIG.NT by the MS-DOS
or 16-bit Windows environments (VDMs).
