Archives still showing as folders in Windows Explorer navigation pane...

Hi Guys,

 

Running Win 11 23H2 22631.3085... I have 7-Zip 23.01 installed and associated with all archive files (.7z, .zip. RAR, etc). However, in Windows Explorer, the archives are still showing-up as folders in the left-hand navigation-pane...

 

This makes things look rather messy when opening a folder that has a bunch of archives inside (see attached).

    Uncheck Show compressed folders in Folder Options > View, or modify the Attributes value to b094010c in the registry to hide the navigation pane display.
