Descrizione

Unable to add to menu in Windows 11

To Reproduce I copied the extracted LessMSI to a folder I created "C:\Program Files (x86)\LessMSI". Next I right clicked "C:\Program Files (x86)\LessMSI\AddWindowsExplorerShortcut.exe" and ran as administrator. It looked like something RAN, but when I checked my menu the LessMSI was not present. I rebooted the terminal multiple times, not only for this, but still no LessMSI in my context menu.

I have used this functionality for a number of years on Win10 and I believe Win7, but recently I had to update my laptop and it came with Windows 11 Pro.

Expected behavior That LessMSI would now be part of my right click menu. and that I could extract MSIs.

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: [Win11Pro ] 10.0.26100
  • Browser [Chrome/Edge]
  • Version [LessMSI 230]
