Vista - Winzip right click menu

**daniellouwrens** · 08-22-2009

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

Along with that suggestion there is 7-zip also.

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

cheers

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.
