Daniel,

You're more likely to get an answer if you ask this question at the 7Zip support page: http://www.7-zip.org/support.html

or on their Forum: http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=45797

This is the "Celestia" forum. :wink:

That is John, NOT me. However, I also have 7Zip installed on one of my computers. It works perfectly fine and unlike WinZip, it is FREE. 7Zip also appears in the list of installed programs, of course.

Presumably you didn't install it correctly. I would simply reinstall it. Be assured it works fine, if properly installed.

Windows are brittle.

Vista is very brittle.
This seems a problem with vista screwing up file associations.
Try to install it without running any program in the background.

I have 7zip on a vista64 computer and didn't have trouble installing it but haven't tried uninstalling it.

I like to keep Vista uninstalled on all my computers. Given a choice between Vista and DOS, I'll pick DOS almost every time. As for XP, I prefer it over DOS - at least it's reasonably stable, unlike its son, Vista wish-I-was-a-working-XP-clone. Maybe it's just me, but shouldn't an operating system that works be upgraded and improved, not replaced with an inferior product? Or would that make too much sense (and be an unlikely MS marketing move)? I suspect the latter....
