    Do folders in i:\ work?
    Try to remove registry values:

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\7-Zip\FM]
    PanelPath0
    PanelPath1
    

    if it doesn't help, try to remove full registry key:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\7-Zip\FM]

    Thanks igor...for the quick response... and yes all the folders in I:\ are working fine.. and infact I could use the context menu to compress/un-compress too using 7-zip... just that I was not able to use File Manager to view the contents.

    I uninstalled the app... restarted my machine... removed all the registry 7-zip keys... and reinstalled v2107 and it is working fine now. Thanks again.
