This will install a menu to your context(right click) menu.
Items include regedit, open cmd here(normal and admin) show/hide known file types, show/hide hidden files/folders, open bash here, open admin powershell here, and open powershell here.
Newest ver may only work fully on windows 10 with the newest "features" update, as I update it with any changes needed after each one. Here is an older ver that will work on windows 8/8.1 and should work on 7: Tools_menu.zip
HOW TO USE:
- Run Tools.bat as admin
- Follow what it says
- If icons dont show up reboot or restart explorer
If you would like take ownership in your context menu you will find it in the "take ownership" folder.

-
v0.8 - Added open bash here. take note that you must enable the linux subsystem for this to work.
-
v0.9 - Removed the need to open cmd first to open bash. take note that you must enable the linux subsystem for this to work.

-
v1.3 - Removed gap in middle of settings menu.

v1.5 - Removed the need for powershell to open admin CMD. May cause issues if you have anything using the key in "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\runas" it will replace it with admin CMD. There's nothing on my pc that uses it as it is an alternate location than the standard "runas" key so it should be fine.
-
v1.6 - Forgot to change the bash reg files.
-
v1.7 - Cleaned up the admin cmd command to shut kip up.
