Shell Commands – “Send To” !!!

Shell Commands – Send To
[Vista tips]
* When you right click a file, you can 'send to' a select group of folders. Here is how to add your own "send to" locations. First, click on the start button. In the little search box, type "shell:sendto". From here, you can drag and drop files or paths you wish to add to the list. Other useful shell commands you can manually add are:

Be careful and use common sense when editing these shells; they are relatively self-explanatory, so I will only elaborate further upon request. Remember that there are no spaces in a "shell:xxxx" command. I think I got them all, tested on home premium and ultimate, 32 & 64 bit. If I missed any, let me know and I will add them.
