Win 10: "Open Command Prompt Here" does not work anymore

Hi,

as the title says, XY's Open Command Prompt Here doesn't work anymore (no cmd shell pops up) when put as a custom item in the tree's context menu*.

But:
- in fresh it works
- the corresponding Windows shell context menu item does work though

Any idea what setting/tweak/anything else could be a candidate root cause?

Thanks,
FH

*: for those who work with a locked tree this item would be helpful in the list context menu as well.

No idea on the primary issue, but regarding the footnote, I have CEA_ListRightClickOnWhite=1, and right click on list's white area gives me the parent folder's menu with the CmdPrompt item (I use a hotkey myself though).

Mine is CEA_ListRightClickOnWhite=6, which I will keep. But thanks for the hint. :)

Do you have Configuration | Templates | Use custom command line interpreter (else default to cmd.exe) enabled/configured?

Bingo!!! It was set to a wrong path. :shock:

Fascinating how good some of you (all of them are admins...) know XY and nearly all of its nut sand bolts. :appl: :appl: :beer:
