I'm trying to create an external tool that will open a new Windows Command console window in the current directory. I've tried several variations of the following but none work. Any suggestions?


Program: start

Parameters:

Working Directory: $FileDir$


Program: cmd

Parameters:/k pwd

Working Directory: $FileDir$


Using 'start' as the Program results in an error dialog with the message "CreateProcess: start error=2".

Hello!



It's simple, just create external tool with "cmd" as a program and without parameters. When it runs, it will start in current dir.



Best regards,
Stanislav
