Solved WinRAR Archive icon is not visible in context menu
Hi guys, why doesn't archive icon appear in context menu?
This problem is bother me.
I tried these methods:
I downloaded Revo Uninstaller to uninstall WinRAR. I tried to remove this software with that.
I uninstalled normally from Control Panel.
I can hide WinRAR archive from context menu but I don't want to do this.

The icon should be under the show more options.
This is equivalent to the old context menu found in Windows 10.

I tried from Options. It's possible to hide it.

Yes but if you've enabled the menus, then in your context menu click "More Options". Everything should be there.

I tried everything :)
Lol. I found myself. You will laugh at this. I click the WinRAR Archive and created on my desktop and then I clicked the right button on my mouse. Go to the Properties and chose the WinRAR :)

When you enable the menu options, restart Explorer or logoff/login or reboot computer for changes to take effect.
