Commands+

Put your own tools and workflows right in the Windows right-click menu.

Commands+ adds your own commands to the right-click menu in File Explorer. Point a command at any program or script, give it a name and an icon, and choose whether it runs as administrator, how its window opens, and whether a script window stays open when it's done.

Show each command only where it makes sense: on the desktop, on folders, on all files, or only on file types such as *.txt or *.jpg. Commands can pass the selected files to your program, ask you for a value before they run, and run with a hotkey.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need step-by-step help? See the full Commands+ guide →

How do I add a command to the right-click menu?

Open Settings and select Commands+. Add a command, give it a name, and choose the program or script it runs. You can also set an icon, parameters and whether it runs as administrator.

Can a command work on the files I selected?

Yes. Use variables such as $first_selected_path or $all_selected_paths in the parameters. A command can run once per selected item or once for the whole selection.

Can I limit a command to certain file types?

Yes. Use the Applies to options to show it on the desktop, on folders, on all files, or only on matching file types such as *.txt or *.jpg.

How is this different from Context Menu+?

Commands+ creates your own commands. Context Menu+ shapes the menu around them: modern or classic style, which commands appear, and in what order.
