    Hi,

    I would like to use 7Zip on a citrix client that only allows users access to specific drives (ie. NOT the C drive). Other programs seem to accept this automatically but 7-zip and other Zip tools I've used still allow the user to access the C drive.

    I noticed in 7-zip registry, there is entries for FSDrives, FSFolder, and RootFolder. I was wondering if anyone knows what these are for and if I can edit them to basically make those drives invisible?

      No way.

      Hi,

      I've got similar issue :
      https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=7361784

      It's really a pitty.... because it's a real security whole :-(
      It's the only major difference I see at the moment with other commercial zip software.
      Everything else is perfect.

      Does someone find a workaround?

      Thanks in advance for any answer.
