--> Command Prompt Here - Vista - Impersonation Failure

Command Prompt Here - Vista

I'm probably the last person to pick up on this little Vista Feature but you don't need to use a Powertoy anymore to get the very useful "Open Command Prompt Here" explorer context menu shortcut. Today searching for the Powertoy I stumbled across this post by Tim Sneath from 2006 :

Here's a trick that I don't think many people are aware of. Right-click on any folder on your Windows Vista machine while holding down the shift key. You'll see an extra context-sensitive menu item there: Open Command Prompt here. Just click on this menu and a command window will open with the current working directory set to the folder's actual location.

It should be a more prominent feature on the packaging. Vista Ultimate, now with CPH™ technology.
