How to add purge.bat to the right-click in Windows 7

Since no one posted a solution I trudged thru it, here it is, should work in XP as well.

Copy the following text to a text file.
Then rename the file to "right-click_purge.reg" (Remove "s)

Begin Copy BELOW This Line ------
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\purgeproe]
@="Purge Pro/E Files"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\purgeproe\Command]
@="cmd.exe /c cd %1 & \"c:\\ptc\\proeWildfire 5.0\\bin\\purge.bat\"
Stop Copy ABOVE This Line -------

You may have to change the path in the last line to suit your Pro/E install.
Once you have the file created, double click it to add info to your registry.

I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOU KILLING YOUR COMPUTER IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING! Backup your registry before doing this.
