Vista - I miss XP's 'Move To' and 'Copy To' buttons - any fixes?

I miss XP's 'Move To' and 'Copy To' buttons - any fixes?

I realize I can can 'drag & drop' or use the Edit menu items, or any of
the myriad methods available since Win3.0; but those buttons were much
easier to use.

Is there any easy way in Vista to have those buttons (no manual registry
hacks)?

Any solutions from Microsoft?

Or any third party solutions?

Hi Aaron,

As a workaround, you can add the "Copy To" and "Move To" options to the
context menu. See:

Add Copy To and Move To to the right-click menu in Vista:
