Copy To - option in Context Menu (right-click menu)
Did you ever wished that Windows XP had a "Copy To" option its in context menu ?
Well, Windows XP has such a feature, but unfortunately they haven't added it to the context menu. To add this handy feature in your context-menu now, just add this code to windows registry.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Copy To]
@="{C2FBB630-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}"
If you are unsure on how to add this to your registry, just copy this code, paste it in a notepad and save it as "somefilename.reg".
Then double click the file to add the values to the registry. Now right - click on a file or folder to witness the new feature.
For complete newbies , I have added a "copyto.reg" file. Download it and double click the file.
This is what you'll find after completing the tweak:

Isn't "Save as..." the same?
You've just saved me ...
... around 30 minutes of my life with this regedit entry.
Thanks ...
That's great, but...
... you can accomplish the same thing more efficiently without having to edit the registery.
1. Navigate to a folder that you'd like to be able to quickly copy files to.
2. Right-Click on the folder, and select "Create Shortcut."
3. Right-Click on the Shortcut, then select "Cut."
4. Click the Start Button, then Run (or hit Windows Key + R).
5. Enter "sendto" into the run field.
6. A folder will open up called "SendTo." Paste your new folder shortcut into the SendTo folder.
Now, when you right-click on a file, simply select "Send To," then the folder you'd like to copy the file into. This way you only have to enter commonly-used folders once, instead of having to select the folder each time.
IT is the same except
