Hello all,

i cant see the menu 7-zip while i can see on explorer.
i was using 7zip for arm64 so i removed and installed the 32b version..while xyplorer is 32b (i have read that in some posts)
but not working still..
any idea?

Try this: Configuration | Other | Shell Integration | 64-bit Windows | Show the 64-bit context menu

A real portable 7-zip doesn't have any Explorer integration.
Maybe you have a portable Apps version of it.
For a normal x64 7zip installation, XY shows the context menu entries of it,
regardless of the Shell integration settings.
Your options in the 7zip file manager should look like this for the top level entries

According to your Screenshot, an important setting is NOT set.
XY is a 32bit program, and you don't have set the integration for it.

Because the Windows Explorer is a 64bit program.

I see 2 ways
- Installing 7zip x64 and set the options.
or
- Use a portable 32bit version of 7zip.
