Support Windows 11 Context Menu
A free file archiver for extremely high compression

Windows 11 has introduced modern context menu, Unpackaged apps (7zip) now requires App Identity, which can be done using Sparse Manifests, Also, You need to extend the menu using IExplorerCommand (Before you can add registry keys to add options to menu, I am not sure what 7zip uses).
Necessary code for this already exists in a 7-zip project fork here: https://github.com/M2Team/NanaZip.
It would be awesome to have this included in the original 7-zip project which I trust more.
In addition to the code, a valid digital signature is required. Code signing certificate costs money.

+1 vote - I used the 7-zip context menus regularly but I upgraded to Windows 11 22H2 yesterday and now they're not showing up any longer.
