    Hello,

    Spybot version 1.6 had the single files scan in the context menu. But there were so many complaints that we have decided to hide this feature in our new Spybot version 1.6.2.

    You have to activate it manually.
    Enter your "Start" Windows panel on the lower left, choose "run" and enter the following command line parameter to activate it:
    "C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\SDFiles.exe" /register

    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

    Hello,

    I would recommend to make a fresh installation of Spybot.
    Please uninstall Spybot - Search & Destroy according to the following link.
    Then make a fresh install of Spybot - Search & Destroy 1.6.2.
    You will find links to several download locations on our website.

    Or choose the direct installation file.

    At the fresh install of Spybot:
    1. select the language, the click OK,
    2. then click Next,
    3. accept the license agreement, click next,
    4. select the destination location, click next,
    5. then select components, TICK THE CHECKBOX IN FRONT OF "EXPLORER FILE SCAN PLUGIN (IN FILE CONTEXT MENU)

    Then perform the other installation steps.

    Best regards
