Title: Any info on how to call external Explorer Context Shortcut
Post by: danrgleason on May 23, 2013, 01:40:58 pm

Does anyone know if there is a method for calling outside of MC to execute a command, not an MC command, but a Windows based command?

The thought is to have a way to add newly added items to my cloud based backup service within MC.

Now, I have to go to Windows Explorer, find the folder I want to backup, right-click and send to backup.

There would be a huge advantage of doing it inside MC as I would be able to sort my views based on criteria and select files to backup as I have over 50K files and only want to have a small percentage of them on my cloud based services like Amazon Cloud player, and Just Cloud.

I see lot's of examples of calling commnds of type MC, but have not seen any external calls, but that must be possible since this intergrates with Last.FM, Amazon, etc.

Thanks,

Dan

You can add commands under Library Tools > Send To > Sent To (External) > Add / Edit Programs.
