Sometimes I need to copy just the path of a file and would like to be able to copy just the path without the whole path with file name.
Right now I have to open up the file name path which pops up Explorer Windows then copy from there. Would like to just highlight the Everything path and copy it in one step vs two.
Add Copy Path Function
Re: Add Copy Path Function
There is already Copy Path in the context menu
which does exactly this.

Re: Add Copy Path Function
horst.epp is correct.
Here is an example of the context menu with a screenshot:
Copy Full Path to Clipboard - "C:\temp\New Text Document.txt"
Copy Path to Clipboard - "C:\temp"
Copy Name to Clipboard - "New Text Document.txt" If you can't see those options yet then you may have to go to
Everything Options > General > Context Menu.
Edit: Screenshots are from 1.5a but I just confirmed that Context Menu options with copy path can also be found in 1.4.

Re: Add Copy Path Function
You can also assign a hotkey to copy a path - from Everything, to the clipboard.
Tools | Options | General -> Keyboard, 'File | Copy Path to Clipboard'
Re: Add Copy Path Function
Ctrl + Shift + C should be the default action to copy the full path and filename to the clipboard.
