I don't see "copy path" on either of those 2 pages.

It's the button around which there is a red box in the picture above. Unfortunately, it only works if a single item is selected. It doesn't work for multiple files.

But if you use StExBar, it has a button that works for multiple files and adds double quotes too for long paths.

OK, got it. You're saying that it will copy only for a file and not for a folder, correct? I can copy as path, and then edit the file name out of text. Its till a great improvement for Mozilla profiles, hidden 7 layers deep, and folders within folders in the profiles.

Maybe someone can write a command to do folders. Maybe someone already has... ;)

It's not files and folders but more than one file selected at a time. You can do that by holding down the Ctrl key as you click to select or use Ctrl+space bar and arrow keys.

In my case, I can't get it to work on a folder. File only.
