How do I copy the current working directory to clipboard?
PS C:\jacek> pwd | CLIP
I get content like below. How can I copy only location/value without any whitespace or description?
Path -- C:\jacek
Find the file or folder whose path you'd like to copy in File Explorer. Hold down Shift on your keyboard and right-click on it. In the context menu that pops up, select “Copy As Path.”
href . window. location. href has the URL of the current page, so the URL will be copied to the clipboard with the copy button is clicked.
Copy path or Copy as path will copy the full path of selected items (files and folders) wrapped in quotes to the Clipboard so you can paste the full path(s) of the item(s) where you like.
Hold down the Shift key, then right-click the photo. 3. In the context menu that appears, find and click Copy as path. This copies the file location to the clipboard. (FYI, if you don't hold down Shift when you right-click, the Copy as path option won't appear.)
Update your code to just return the Path
:
(pwd).Path | CLIP
If you're using PowerShell v5 or newer you can use Set-Clipboard instead of clip(.exe).
(pwd).Path | Set-Clipboard
In PowerShell 5.0 and above, you can also use
(pwd).Path | scb
or
scb (pwd).Path
where scb is an alias for Set-Clipboard
