Isn't it very simple ?

Pros
This program does not run as a background process or something like this. The program only creates an MSDOS session shortcut. As a result you can right click on a folder and exit to MSDOS directly to that folder. You can also remove the shortcut from the context menu if you want. Simple, easy to use and free. The perfect tool if you are using again and again a command line compiller or some kind of interpreters from MSDOS.
Cons
I like it just the way it is.

Summary
This is a wonderfully made program, and should deserve every bit of the comments it's recieved, except... This IS a feature with Windows, and not many know how to access it. This could be why the developer made it, to make things easier for novice Windows users. But don't think it's not already a part of the Windows shell.
Brilliant

Developer’s Description

By Chenpro Systems

Exit DOS with a single click and then resume work in Windows.

This simple peice of software is for those people who often switch between Windows and DOS session. When the user right clicks on a folder item (probably in Windows explorer) an extra menu item named 'Exit to MSDOS' is added by this software. On clicking this menu item a DOS session is started with the current directory being the one the user selected. Its something like easily exiting to DOS, on the desired folder, with a single click.
