    Hey,

    So, I recently installed Windows 10 LTSC and have the Microsoft Store installed on it as well.

    I regularly use Windows Terminal so I downloaded it from the Store but for some reason I don't get the "Open in Terminal" option on the context menu like you do on consumer editions of Windows 10.

    Any solutions?
    Thanks

    Tried the first one, it made no difference whether it was for the current users or all users.

    Also, I just wanted the "Open in Terminal" option just like you'd find on Windows 10's consumer editions.

    OpenCMDHereAsAdmin.reg

    Code:
    [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\background\shell\OpenElevatedCmd]
@="Open command prompt here as administrator"
"Icon"="imageres.dll,-5324"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\background\shell\OpenElevatedCmd\command]
@="PowerShell -windowstyle hidden -Command \"Start-Process cmd.exe -ArgumentList '/s,/k,pushd,%V' -Verb RunAs\""

    Is this a .reg or a .bat file?
