Update cmder

borhanuddin

I think I successfully update my cmder inside laragon from version 1.3.2 to 1.3.13.967 by doing below steps:

Download latest cmder_mini portable version from https://cmder.net/
Do not delete the original cmder inside laragon
extract the latest cmder_mini inside C:\laragon\bin, by giving it a new folder name; eg. cmder_mini so that you have 2 cmder apps installed
Open file C:\laragon\bin\cmder\vendor\init.bat (original) and copy code from line 168 - 215 (from :: Laragon Start until :: Laragon End)
Open file C:\laragon\bin\cmder_mini\vendor\init.bat (latest version) and paste that line after:

323 | :: Set home path
324 | if not defined HOME set "HOME=%USERPROFILE%"
325 | %lib_console% debug_output init.bat "Env Var - HOME=%HOME%"

[paste that code below here]

~Done~

The only problem that I can't seems to configure is how to change root directory when cmder start
The old cmder that included in laragon start at
C:\laragon\www
but the new cmder root folder start at
C:\laragon\bin\cmder_mini

Can anyone help?

Developer can advice if this steps is the right way to update cmder?

Thanks.

@borhanuddin : I haven't updated cmder quite a long time. However, in C:\laragon\bin\cmder\vendor\init.bat, you can add add command to jump to your document root:

cd C:\laragon\www

@leokhoa Thanks. I just add the code you suggested before the closing of

:: Laragon End -------------------------------------

and it's working.
I hope this help others who seek on how to update cmder to the latest version.
