Hello 7zip-team,

just noticed this: when you start "7-Zip File Manager" without administrator rights, you are able to activate "Integrate 7-zip to shell context menu" in the options. Nevertheless, it does nothing. Shell context menu is not getting activated.
As soon as you close&open the options menu again, the option is disactivated.

Would be cool, if "7-Zip File Manager" would ask for admin rights for that option, when I want to activate it.

By the way, if I start 7zip with admin rights, the option works just as fine, of course.

Kind regards,
DigitGram

P.S.: thank you so much for 7-zip (+ open-source it). I simply fall in love with it :).

    Would be cool, if "7-Zip File Manager" would ask for admin rights for that option, when I want to activate it.

    Would be even cooler if it could create some context menu entries that don't require admin rights. Programs like WinMerge are able to do so.
