7-Zip...no context menu?

Hi,
I recently reinstalled Windows and when I ran 7-Zip, I noticed that despite having enabled the context menu, it's not showing up?
Any ideas what could be wrong?
Thanks!

Local

That's a local app ability and will leave a permanent change on the local machine. You may be able to get it working by disabling, closing, running 7-Zip Portable as admin, then turning it back on.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

Thanks, that...sort of worked

Thanks, that...sort of worked.
I now get the menu in XYPlorer (which I use more often than Windows Explorer), but oddly, not in WE?
Also, it doesn't respect my selection of items to include in the context menu. It defaults to everything...oh well, better than before.
Thx!
