Copywhiz menu missing when right clicking on a folder or file in Windows File Explorer.

Question

After installing  Copywhiz   on my Windows desktop PC, I was expecting to access the program directly within the native Windows Explorer (i.e., I was expecting to see the  Copywhiz  context menu when right-clicking on a folder or file when using Windows Explorer). I don't see a  Copywhiz  context menu in Windows Explorer.  How do i  rectify this if this is indeed meant to happen? 

I can start the  Copywhiz  program from the desktop icon and copy and paste with  Copywhiz  with my own file system. Is  Copywhiz  meant to start with Windows?

1. Click on the  Download button and download  vcredist_x64.exe and install it.
2. Now, try registering  Copywhiz Shell.dll and  Copywhiz Shell64.dll as given below:

• Search for "Command Prompt" program using start menu, right click on the "Command Prompt" option and choose "Run as administrator".
• Then type the below command:
  • regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Conceptworld\Copywhiz\CopywhizShell64.dll" and hit enter. This should give a success registration message. 
  •  Note that I am assuming  Copywhiz  is installed on C drive. If it is on any other drive then C:\ should change to D:\ or that drive letter in above command. Also type the below command next:
  • regsvr32 "C:\Program Files (x86)\Conceptworld\Copywhiz\CopywhizShell.dll" and hit enter. This should give a success registration message.
  • Restart the computer and check if  Copywhiz  appears in right click menu.
