An article by mgear

You can add custom context menu items into Windows Explorer (more info),
so you can create custom menu item that opens the current folder as a project in Unity.
(it will still warn you about project version if its different)

Example RegEdit file: *Note! you must change the Unity folders to match your unity installation folder and version

	Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

	[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\Background\shell\Unity]
	"Icon"="\"D:\\Program Files\\Unity55Beta\\Editor\\Unity.exe\""
	@="Open with Unity 5.5"

	[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\Background\shell\Unity\command]
	@="\"D:\\Program Files\\Unity55Beta\\Editor\\Unity.exe\" -projectPath \"%V\""
