Allows for use of filename-path adequately.
aeiou.stem.nr- Pros
- Path (of file) is put to clipboard from right-click menu.
- Cons
- No great problems.
- Summary
- This addition to a power-user's experience has been long missed. And welcome addition to Windows.
This is one of my most valuable utilities.
ruthbernstein- Pros
- When I need to identify the path of a certain file, this eliminates much searching to record the location of the file. Thank you !!!!!
- Cons
- The reference to / and \ might be confusing to a newbie. Once you understand one is for one is for drive path and the other is for web addresses, it's simple.

Works Great in 32-Bit XP and Vista but not in x64 Vista
bmn_1213- Pros
- Have been using this for some time on 32-bit XP and Vista and love it. Easy to install and simple to use.
- Cons
- However when I upgraded one of my machines to x64 Vista I found I couldn't install it.
- Summary
- Great for 32-bit XP and Vista but not for x64 Vista. In x64 Vista I found out that it includes its own version of clip path. After you click on a folder or file you can hold the shift key and then right click and select "Copy as Path". Then you can paste the path into word or excel. This works for multiple files/folders as well!!

What every OS should have built in
wlsmith- Pros
- This tool so perfectly meets an obvious need that no Operating System should be without it. MS should have thought of it.
- Cons
- The menu could provide a clue about which direction you might want your slash to lean, left or right. Just offering me "/" or "\" forces me to think too much.
- Summary
Perfect, useful simplicity!
lisact- Pros
- This is an extremely lightweight, useful little program. I use it daily when I'm browsing for files, uploading, or sending file paths through email. The "paste in Outlook" option is a huge improvement over the older version of ClipPath!
- Cons
- Summary
Very Useful - especially when you want to upload files
tk_cnet- Pros
- I use it almost all the time when I have to attach files in yahoo mail or any mail software. Simply clip the path of the file and paste it in the box where you are asked for attachment's path+filename.
- Cons
- I would like to see a shortcut key combination along with the mouse to clip path.

Developer’s Description
By SS
As a Programmer, we are often required to set the path or classpath Environment variables. But Windows Operating does not allow us to copy the full path of a file or a folder,say, c:\temp\try.java to clipboard so that we can paste the same anywhere we require. Clip Path utility tries to solve these problems. It is a windows Shell Extension Program. Once installed, you can copy full path of a file or folder to clipboard.
New features in Version 2.1 include the Addition of one more menu item - "Create Outlook Link(s)".
