Copy Location Shell Extension

This shell extension adds the ability to copy file and folder names from the Windows Explorer window to the clipboard.
Simply select the file(s) whose name you want to copy, right-click and select "Copy File Path" or "Copy File Name" from the context menu. Then paste to any editor.
Copy File Path - copies the entire path to the file.
Copy File Name - copies only the file name without the folder.

Download

Current version: 1.1.0 (July 6, 2010)

You can download the shell extension and the source code separately:
Add-in only (size 33KB) - Download
Source code (size 43KB) - Download

Setup

1. Unzip CopyLocation.zip to the folder where you want to install utility (e.g., C:\Windows).
2. Go to the installation folder and double-click on install.bat or install64.bat, depending on the type of your Windows: 32 or 64-bit.
3. If you wish, you can delete the .bat files and the .dll of the other Windows type.

Install.bat registers CopyLocation.dll in the system.

Alternatively you can:

2. From the Start menu select Run...

To uninstall the shell extension:
1. From the Start menu select Run...
2. Type "regsvr32.exe /u C:\Windows\CopyLocation.dll" and press OK (specify the exact installation folder).
