Hello!

Please could you add another option to convert a UNC path to SMB path?
Quite similar to Internet path, smb://path instead of file://path

Currently it would be really useful for PC to Mac sharing!

Thanks!
Regards

Not sure I understand as Path Copy Copy does not have clickable links. Do you mean that the Copy SMB Path command does not produce a path in the correct format? If so, what is the correct format?

The Samba command seems like too fringe a feature to add a new command to copy the parent folder path... and if I change the default behavior, it will seem out-of-place compared to the Internet command.

I suggest you create a custom command based on Copy Samba Path and use regular expressions to keep only the folder path:

Find what: ^(.*/)[^/]*$
Replace with: $1

In my tests here it succeeds in copying the parent folder path, including terminating /.
