Copy a path to the Clipboard

Many times, you may want to obtain a copy of the path of a file or folder in the hard disc of your computer. You may need this very frequntly in the organization or office.

Most of us do this by following below steps:

• Launching the Windows Explorer
• Traverse the directory to the file / fiolder
• Select the contents of the address bar
• Copy the path and paste it in Notepad
• Finally, type the filename itself.

But, you will be glad to know that with Windows Vista, you no longer have to perform these steps to get the path to a file. It is very simple and easy. Just hold down the "Shift" key, right-click on the file or folder, and select the new command titled "Copy as Path". Now, the path of file / folder will be copied to the Clipboard. You can paste it anywhere with "CTRL + V".
