When I right click on a file/folder in the top pane, I see the Winrar stuff such as "add to archive", "compress and email" etc. But the winrar group is missing when i right click on a file inside the Windows Font folder (C:\windows\Fonts). In fact, the list of actions in the drop down list is quite different. May be windows handles some of the system folders differently. I was trying to compress and backup the Fonts folder. By the way if I go back to C:\Windows, select the Fonts folder and right click, Everything is ok. Weird. See attached screenshots.

Right click drop down list looks fine if I use File Explorer and select a file in the Windows\Fonts folder. The issue seems to be with XY.

Other file managers behaves the same way.
Only Windows Explorer shows WinRAR entries in the context menu for files under Windows\fonts
