Recommended Posts

Win98se

I used winzip for years till an MVP

suggested I needed to pay for it to retain it.

I then used free Zip central, however I cannot remove

winzip or another zip program I tried from

the drop down box.

I have removed the program from add/remove.

how may I unclutter the dd box?

 

Thanks for any assistance.

Perhaps I'm misinterpreting the question: are you referring to the right

click menu in explorer?

Remove Winzip Explorer context menu commands from within WinZip.

It will vary according to the version but on the one I have (V9) it is

Winzip-Options-Configuration-Explorer Enhancements

 

The other program (12-Zip from 12 Ghosts?) I believe also has options

to remove context menu commands.

 

You will obviously have to reinstall them to do this.

If you don't want to do that, then you need to remove the Registry

keys or use another 3rd party context menu application to remove them.

 

I may (?) be able to supply the Registry keys if you let me know the

versions you installed.
