I would like to be able to right click on a file or folder and click
"archive" and it should take the file or folder, copy it to a subfolder in
the present directory called archive, and then rename the file/folder copied
with a date suffix.

How to:

..Add a batch/cmd item to the right-click menu when clicking on a file or
folder

..write a batch file that will. take a file or folder, copy it to a subfolder
in the present directory called archive, and the rename the file/folder
copied with a date suffix.
