"Cmder here" doesn't work if set start-up dir

[nguymin4]

Hi, I have the problem above for several months and I hope someone can help me with that.

OS: Windows 10
Cmder: 1.2.9
Git-for-Windows: 2.6.3

I set up startup dir for a default task with git-bash. However if I set startup dir then I cannot use the context menu Cmder Here anymore.

In addition, if I press Ctrl+T to create new session, then the new session will open the startup directory, not the current working directory.

What does it mean that you "cannot use the context menu" anymore. Does it just start up in the wrong dir?

If it is the latter, it could be this line in init.bat:

@if defined CMDER_START (
    @cd /d "%CMDER_START%"
) else (
    @if "%CD%\" == "%CMDER_ROOT%" (
        @cd /d "%HOME%"
    )
)

If so, it might help to change it to:

@if "%CD%\" == "%CMDER_ROOT%" (
   @if defined CMDER_START (
       @cd /d "%CMDER_START%"
    ) else (
       @cd /d "%HOME%"
    )
)

@JanSchulz : I mean it always start with the startup-dir instead of the current working directory where I use Cmder here or where I press Ctrl+T (to create a new console)

Here is my default task
%CMDER_ROOT%\..\Git\bin\sh.exe --login -i -new_console:d:D:\My_startup_dir
So even I'm in a different directory, Cmder here always open my_startup_dir

Although, I think your solution is not gonna work, I did try it and it turned out I was right :(.
Thanks for you help anyway
