Copy as Path Context Menu

If you ever had to upload a new photo on your social networks for instance, then we do not have to tell you about the inflexible browser-based uploading tools that make you click through endless folders until you find the file you need.

Copy as Path Context Menu is a lightweight application that allows you copy the paths of the selected files and folders in Windows Explorer.

Since the application is designed as an operating system enhancement, it means that you can find it alongside other options in the Context menu. In other words, it is not distracting and can be accessed only during the times you actually need it. You can navigate through the settings or uninstall the utility from the same location.

As far as the settings are concerned, you have 2 main options, meaning to copy the paths for the selected files in a single line and separate them with a comma or place them in Double Quotes. You should know that the program includes examples of what these settings do so that you can avoid any confusion.

The program fulfills only a few roles, namely to copy full paths, names, just names without extensions, extensions and the parent folder path. Irrespective of which you access, you need to open a document and paste them.

It would be nice if the application allowed you to copy the desired information and then send it to clipboard as it would save you a lot of time. In fact, you can obtain the same thing by right-clicking on the desired file while holding the Shift key pressed.

If you are working with single files, then the app does not bring anything new compared to Windows's default copy path function.

In the eventuality that you need to copy the paths for multiple files and directories at the same time, then Copy as Path Context Menu might be the utility to lend you a hand.
