Open archive file

Could someone kindly clarify how to open an archive file with xplorer2? For example, when I open an encrypted .rar file from Directory Opus, I'm prompted to enter the password, and then, once entered, can access the archive content. Conversely, when opening the same .rar from from xplorer2, Winzip starts, prompting me to add to the archive which is not what's needed.

How can I access the archive with xplorer2?

thanks
S

you need this shell extension

if you are on 64 bit windows this won't work for xplorer2 lite which is 32 bit
