    Microsoft is adding extensive archive format support (using libarchive) to Windows 11. I’d like to thank 7-zip for its service over the decades, though.

      The way Msoft are going with right click options I’m doubtful it’ll complete.

        If you’re talking about the more limited set of options you get when you right click a file in Windows 11, just hold shift while right clicking to get the original options. You’ve actually been able to hold shift to get additional options going way back, I think to windows XP.

        There’s a lot of extra useful options in there too like opening command prompts to the current folder and copying file paths to the clipboard.
