Access My Working Folder From SSMS

A link to the windows folder where the database repository is stored would be good too.

SQL Source Control has a hidden option that allows you to open the linked database’s working folder from SSMS. See comments for how to find this option.

    You can access the working folder by:
    1.Visit the SQL Source Control tab.
    2.In the Object Explorer on the left, highlight the database for which you want to access the working folder.
    3.In the main window hover the cursor over the Linked to database path, hold down CTRL + SHIFT, and then click the right mouse button.
    4.Select “Open Working Base Location” from the menu, and Windows Explorer should open up in the Working Base folder for that database.
