Is there a way to launch Cmder instead of CMD when using following shortcut:

Shift + Right click -> Open command window here

Love the tool.

From the wiki: "Open Cmder Here" in context menu
I'm not sure if this replace the cmd entry in the context menu.

Thanks!

Although on Windows 8.1, after clicking on 'Open Cmder here' I get the following warning:

Only Windows Defender installed (no other AV), permissions seem to be fine.

Can you verify that you put the correct path in n the environment variable. Also try restarting your computer.

Restart solved it. Perhaps you can add it to Wiki?

I'm just a user of cmder, I don't know the rules for changing the wiki. But it's also a pretty standard thing on both Linux and windows that any modifications to an env variable require to restart the processes that use it. (Restarting the OS being the simplest option)

I made it work with the windows context menu (from WIKI instructions) but the path is wrong. it is not starting the shell in the path where it was opened :/
