Add Windows Explorer to your Visual Studio tools menu

Sometimes it is needed to access the project folder in Windows Explorer, but there is no easy way to do that using VS.

It can be solved by adding Explorer to External Tools in VS:

To set it up, click Tools, then External Tools..., then click Add.  Now enter the following data:
Title: Windows Explorer
Command: explorer.exe
Arguments: /select,"$(ItemPath)"

Leave Initial directory blank, and click OK.  Now when you click Tools, Windows Explorer, Windows Explorer will open with the current file you are editing selected.

Add "Copy to" to Windows context menu

To enable a Copy To Folder option in the right-click menu when right-clicking a file or folder you have to add one key to the Registry. Use Windows R to open the run dialog and enter regedit in there. Now navigate to the Registry key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \AllFilesystemObjects \shellex \ContextMenuHandlers. You will notice the Send To entry there. Right-click the ContextMenuHandlers entry and select New > Key from the list.

Name that key Copy To and click ok. Now double-click the default entry on the left pane and give it the value {C2FBB630-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}.
