7zip problems after unattented installation


Recommended Posts

When I select multiple .doc/.xls files after having 7zip installed in unnatented mode (but i am sure it acts the same after manual installation), right mouse click and then 'open' ... it opens as many 7zip instances as many files you had choosen instead of Opening Excel or Word (which was my intention) . I know it can be fixed by going to 7zip and options changing it there.. but since i do 'automatic installations on few computers' it's too annoying to do it on each new computer I do. So my question is: is there 'registry' line that could fix my problem.. so i could just add it to registry? Or some other quick way for unnatented solution... PLEASE HELP!

Just if someone might be looking for an answer add this 4 lines to some 7zip.reg file and execute:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

;Fixing 7zip registry settings

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\7-Zip\Options]

"ContextMenu"=dword:113

This fixes the problem mentioned above.
