atplsx I am unsure that you have diagnosed the issue correctly. The context menu shell extension is issuing the command. If it asked for the exe by name and not path, then you could add an executable alias to the manifest. I still don't think this is the answer, but it is easy to try.

procmon does not show any errors, so I installed 7-zip normally and saw that the exe running in the right-click menu was 7zg.exe
- Sep 06, 2023I checked the native install, and found that 7-zip behaves the same as what I observe when packaged. Right-click on an archive (.zip for .7z)-->Show More Options-->7-Zip->CRC SHA-->Test archive:Checksum causes error "Cannot open the file as [Hash] archive".
So I'm think my package looks as good as it gets. Probably yours too.
