Malware Bytes context menu

Clint · 07 Apr 2018

Since the 3.4.5 malware Bytes update, I no longer have "Scan with Malware Bytes" in the right click context menu. I have it turned on in settings. Any ideas?

Hi Clint, I found out you need to have the real-time notifications also turned on, for it to show up in context menu.
Probably has to do with the scan results being able to be shown, i dunno.

Thanks Cliff for the reply. I also have that turned on.

That's what I found for me after tinkering, too bad it's not one of those "one size fits all" solutions

But then again, that's typical of using Windows

Go to Malwarebytes 3 - Malwarebytes Forums , search for "context menu" (without the quotation marks, of course.)

I read over at the Malwarebytes forum that toggling it off and back on worked for some users. (context menu setting)
