Hello, Dave I am using these registry entries with command one-liners to launch bash and mintty from the Windows 8 explorer context menus. They works fine with directory names containing apostrophes (e.g. "C:\t'e s t\"). Take a look on it if this can be adapted for the first method (-1) of chere to address the problem with the apostrophes for it. -- Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\background\shell\CYGWIN64-MINTTY-BASH] @="Cygwin &Bash prompt here" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\background\shell\CYGWIN64-MINTTY-BASH\command] @="\"C:\\Cygwin64\\0\\bin\\mintty.exe\" -e /bin/bash.exe -l -c \"cd \\\"$(/bin/cygpath.exe \\\"%V\\\")\\\"; exec /bin/bash.exe\"" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\CYGWIN64-MINTTY-BASH] @="Cygwin &Bash prompt here" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\CYGWIN64-MINTTY-BASH\command] @="\"C:\\Cygwin64\\0\\bin\\mintty.exe\" -e /bin/bash.exe -l -c \"cd \\\"$(/bin/cygpath.exe \\\"%L\\\")\\\"; exec /bin/bash.exe\"" -- -- -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
