Is there a way to insert a Copy Path to clipboard into the right-click menu?

My Windows usage is absolutely centered on this option. It allows you to copy the path of the file location so that you can paste it when opening/saving programs, etc.

I was able to use it since forever using this freeware program:

PathCopyEx


However on Windows 7,
PathCopyEx disables the Manage function when you Right click on Computer > Manage

The problem goes away as soon as PathCopyEx is uninstalled.


I think this program was last updated in the last century. Is there an alternative way to insert this into the right-click menu? I honestly would not be able to use Windows 7 if I couldn't do this, it's that big of a deal, I use it every day and all the time.

Alternatively, I'd install your old tool that breaks manage functionality then check the registry here:


You may find a difference between without the application and with the application, and you may be able to uninstall the app and manually modify the registry to hack in the functionality you want without breaking other stuff.

Or you could start here:

My Windows 7 RTM install marches on thanks to you.
