i have small tool laid in c:\windows but i want to call it from command line anywhere. parameter is a folder name - but it can be only a name from a subfolder or full path. if only subfolder i need to determine the calling folder otherwise it would handle the wrong folder.
it doesnt matter if i call it from context menu oder sendto - there is given the full path but not in command line window.

Are you just looking for this
!include FileFunc.nsh
${GetParent} $CmdLine $0
DetailPrint $0
You could try calling GetFullPathName with the system plugin...
