Problem viewing ZIP files

[KenS]

Double clicked the ZIP file.

Yep, just confirmed that, I double clicked the file, and was expecting the files in the ZIP to be displayed in the tab.

Double-click opens a file with the associated application. To preview it open the Preview Tab (Ctrl+4) or the Preview Pane (Ctrl+F11) and select the file.

Been busy, getting back to mopping up some problems.

A while ago, I followed the instructions and changed XY...ini to

ZipPath7zip=C:\Program Files\7-zip\7z.exe
ZipExtractUse7zip=1

and nothing changes ... as well as 7z.exe I tried 7zFM.exe and 7zG.exe, all with the same result.

What am I doing wrong?

This is the working setting for an x64 7zip installation

Code: Select all

ZipPath7zip=%ProgramW6432%\7-Zip\7z.exe

Got it to work, I had to change 7z.exe to 7zFM.exe and also change the default opening of zip files from File Explorer to 7zFM.exe

Strange, no one uses the 7zip file manager from inside of other tools.
7z.exe has all function one needs and it works in several file managers including XY.
