Winzip right click menu

Hi

I have Ultimate 64.

I have just installed Winzip 10 and there is no right click menu in explorer except for the usual Open/Send to etc, there is not "extract to here" Add to archive etc.

These are all selected in options/context menu commands.

Is there something in Vista 64 that is stopping it.

regards

Daniel

Thanks folks, I have 7-zip but it does not address the issue of the Winzip Right Click menu.

You really only need one program for zips and other files of that sort.

Yes, I understand that but I paid for Winzip and need it to work, I have found that 7-Zip makes errors when unzipping vwery large Winzip Zips.

Are you able to open zip files through win zip?

Open up WinZip, then in the options panel look for an option to add to context menu. There should be an option there.

From the original post

Download autoruns and in the everything tab, scroll down until you see context menu handlers and if win zip is checked.

Autoruns for Windows

will give it a go

With the 64bit version of Vista, the older versions of Winzip do not support the right click context menu items.​

Good luck!​

Okay, that is what I was waiting for, if it does not work, so be it, I will stop trying.

Glad you have your answer. I understand you had paid for the software and I'm sorry it won't work with your present OS. But the other compression software mentioned are very good. 7-Zip is really nice. As an fyi, peazip has a 64-bit version. Good luck!
