Right-Clicking to Scan Files with Antivirus

Post by pegasus »

I do a lot of downloads, and always like to scan them with my antivirus programs before opening. In Windows Explorer, I just right-click the file and it offers me the choice of "Scan with Malwarebytes", "Scan with Avira Antivirus", etc. When I right-click in XY, those options aren't available. I then have to open Windows Explorer to perform this function (which kind of defeats the purpose of using XY :cry: ).

Is there a way to get those functions into the right-click of XY?

Did you read all of it?
There's a possible workaround described too.
