Using the registry editor, make you registry in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT look like
this:
(Specifically, I addes a "Bash" key under "shell" in both
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive and HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory keys.
In Bash, I added the "command" key. Below, I describe the string values of
these keys.

dot dot to. a lot of lines here.

and
(Embedded image moved to file: pic18084.pcx)
Make your keys look like these under "directory" and "drive" in
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT.
String value for "Bash" is "Bash Here" - this is any ol' string which will
show up in your right click menu.
String value for command is (in my case) f:\cyg\bin\bash.exe. Remember both
are REG_SZ strings.

Subject: Multiple users of cygwin and "bash here"
Hi,
I've just downloaded and installed (on a network drive) the latest version
of cygwin.
This works fine, but I can't find out how other persons should use cygwin
without they doing the installation also.
Another question is how I can make a "cygwin here" like "command prompt
here". I would like to right click on a folder in Explorer and choose
"cygwin here" which should start bash in this folder.
("command prompt here" is a windows .inf file from microsoft Power toys.
When that file is installed it changes registry-settings so that a
DOS-window is started on the choosen folder)
Regards
Gunnar Boström
