Windows Terminal Here Menu Item

A simple way to add a context menu item for Windows to open Windows Terminal.

⚠ Windows Terminal has implemented this feature natively, so this hack is now obsolete.

Install

  • Download the most recent release, start the installer.
  • If you've encountered "Windows protected your PC" window, click on "More info" and choose "Run anyway."
  • Choose options or continue with default options.

Uninstall

Uninstall normally through "Add or remove programs."

Upgrade

In order to upgrade this application, you should uninstall an old version prior to installing a new version. An upgrade without uninstalling is not supported.

Build

All you need is an Inno Setup Compiler (or Inno Setup Command-line Compiler). You can download it from the official site jrsoftware.org.

Clone the repository. Open the wt-here-menu.iss script in the compiler and build it. If you want to use a command line, add the Inno Setup's directory to your PATH and call iscc:

iscc.exe wt-here-menu.iss
