Altap Salamander Support Forums

Hello all,

Recently I have upgraded to Windows 11, and I had noticed, that if I run Salamander as Administrator, the right-click context menus do not show the correct associations anymore. I have WinRar installed, and used to right-click an archive file, then use "Extract... " from the WinRar options.
However, this is gone now. It instead only gives the option to "Extract All..." for zip files, but that's it.
If I run Salamander normally (without Admin rights), then I will get the WinRar context menu, from which I can then choose whatever archive operation I want.
I presume this is some sort of Windows 11 "feature". Probably programs run in Admin mode disallow some default app association.

Try to run WinRAR as administrator, go to the Options > Settings > Integration and check the boxes you want. And try again.

1. Launch WinRAR.
2. Click on Options, Settings...
3. Select Integration tab.
4. Check Legacy context menus.
5. Click on OK.
