Where does this add the context menu? Folders?

 

yes 'Directory' as registry calls it

 

very handy, works well, thanks! Opening projects like this, however, allows me to have multiple unity projects open at the same time. I wonder what the consequences of that might be.

 

thanks. opening multiple projects was already possible, this just makes it easier
