This function is to enable the operation as convinient as possible. What you need to do is just download and install a registry script for Windows that will let you add a Copy To Folder or Move To Folder to the right-click menu, which can be very useful when you want to move a file but don’t have the other folder open already.

Option 1 Registry Script Easy way

Download the Registry Script here, unzip, and double-click on the registry files, when a dialog box appears, click Continue and then it can be used in your Right-Click menu.

Right-click on a file,And up pops a nice dialog that you can use to easily drop a file into the right directory.

Tips: It can also be used in Windows XP and Vista.

Option 2 Manually Hard way

  2. Locate HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT > AllFileSystemObjects > shellex > ContextMenuHandlers.
  3. Right-click “ContextMenuHadlers” and select “New > Key”.
  4. Rename the key to “Copy To”.
