Add a program to Send To context in Windows 8

With the move to Windows 7 and Windows 8, there are a number of new locations for folders that were very helpful and well known to support techs and SysAdmins. The Send To folder (where you could control what shows up in Explorer when you right clicked on an item and selected Send To) was one of these.

Unfortunately, for many, the location of this file is a mystery… Until now.

HowToGeek.com shows how to do this in two different ways.

One way is to run the following in a command window or Run box (WinKey + R):
shell:sendto

Simple and elegant, this should find the correct folder for the currently logged in user.

Alternatively, in a command window or Run box (WinKey + R) you can enter the following:
%UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo

Just in case you needed to know…
