Scanning Single Files

[mr yoda]

Is it possible to configure Spybot S&D to scan single files? I currently have ZA installed and when I right click on a folder/file it gives me the option of scanning it with AV software.

Is there any way to do this with Spybot S&D?

Hello,

Please make sure that you are running the latest version of Spybot - Search & Destroy - version 1.5.2.
To see which version number and/or updates of Spybot - Search & Destroy you are using please run Spybot-S&D and choose "Help" --> "About" in the menu bar.
There you can see which version you have and which updates are installed.

The function of deleting single files is hidden, so you have to activate it manually.

Please open the registry editor by:
(a) press windowskey + r then enter "regedit" (without quotation marks)
or
(b) click on "start" , then "run" and enter "regedit" (without quotation marks)

Then type: regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\SDFiles.dll"
After that you'll get a notification that the command was successfull executed.

Now you can rightclick on a file and click on the tab SpybotS&D.
The single file will be scanned.

Best regards

SpybotSandra,
Don't you mean open a 'command prompt' instead of 'regedit'?
