Copy Location

This shell extension adds the following right-click menu items in Windows Explorer:

  • Copy File Path
  • Copy File Name

It originally came from the Copy Location Shell Extension article on CodeProject. I rebuilt it in 2007 using VS2005 to get a version for x64, and I changed the source to turn off the bitmaps on the menu items.

The original author is Itay Szekely (grebulon@gmail.com), and the current official version is available at https://www.grebulon.com/software/copylocation.php. The official version was updated in 2010 to support x64, but it still uses menu item bitmaps.

Installation

  1. Open a command prompt using Run as Administrator.
  2. Change to the 32-bit or 64-bit folder based on your OS.
  3. Run: regsvr32.exe CopyLocation.dll
