context scan menu
« on: Yesterday at 18:45:12 »
I use Multicommander version 11.3-1822 / September 2021, because I don't like the ho(o)ver function and turning it off didn't succeed. I noticed that the contextmenu that I access using the right mouse button doesn't have the scan option anymore. The only time when I get the scan option in the context menu is when I select a map, and even then it's hidden in a submenu. I use antivirus software that contains a firewall. When I decided to uninstall that software I noticed the windows defender scanner immediately turned up in the context menu, directly accessible. After re-installing my anti virus/ firewall software my problem returned.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Im note sure I understand the issue. something with option in Shell ContextMenu.
Problem is that MC do not have much control over that. MC ask Windows for the Shell Context Menu. And it is up to the installed Shell Extension. Problem is that some of them assume that trey are called from Windows Explorer. and if not. they do not return any item for the menu. So.. MC have no control of 3rd party shell extensions
