Which version of WinZip?

I use WinZip 9.0 SR1 and it won't show up in Win7X64 Expolerer pop-up.
So I had to install z-zip in order to easily create new zipfiles...

My UltraEdit is version 8.20 and the same thing happens.

I also used to put a few other commands manually into the explorer
pop-up by entering data in the registry, but that does not work
anymore either.

But if it is possible for 32 bit applications to integrate into the
Windows Explorer on Win7X64, then surely the developers of the GnuPG
add-ons like GpgEx and GPGshell should be able to do so as well?
Why haven't any such application integration appeared?

Unfortunately I am not a programmer on that level so I could not help
out myself, otherwise i would have done so.
