Since v1809-17763-55 7Zip no longer appears in my right click context
menu. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it to no avail, it does not show in 'open with' or 'how to open this file'. the version is 18.05. It is installed properly and works OK if you run it and point it to the file you want to extract, Any Ideas as to what may be the problem or how to get it back in the right click context menu? Thanks for any pointers or advice. Rene |

reports suggest that some zip-related behavior is broken in the operating system. The users did not reveal if they used the built-in zip functionality or a third-party application; IZarc has stayed working for me. |

I indeed did have the 32 bit 7-Zip installed, I deleted it and downloaded and installed the 64 bit 18.05 version and that solved the problem, its all good now :-) Rene |

Just search for 'context menu'. They also have a hack for adding to the shift-click special context menu. |

Yes I found that one while searching for answers to my problem, it is called Easy context Menu 1.6, works great I installed one program so far but haven't had time to explore it fully, you can also remove nuisance entries which you don't use, which I aim to do.
