    Malwarebytes in Context Menu


    How come I can't get malwarebytes to show up in my explorer context menu like it's supposed to be? The box is checked in mbam and I rechecked it but it's still not showing up. Does anybody with mbam have it in theirs?

    Are you trying it inside "libraries"? have you tried it in a file outside? e.g. on desktop? Winrar does the same....but works outside libraries.

    I don't get it for anything in the context menu anymore like it was and should be. I just downloaded the mbam program update too and it still doesn't show up.

    Works for me. I get the option of scanning in the context menu. Maybe you didn't select the option during install. Just my guess.

    No, I have it selected and have unchecked and rechecked it. It's checked by default. It was there before, I don't get it.

    You're trying to get a 32bit program to show extensions in a 64bit Explorer window....

    Think about it....

    Also, see Vista 64 bit - Malwarebytes Forum

    This applies only to the registered (read: paid and / or beta tester) version of MBAM....

    But your Explorer integration also applies to 64bit versus 32bit.

    For example, if you installed a 32bit file manager, such as xplorer2 lite 32bit, you'd see the extension there.

    I know - main reason I was poking fun at you is because I ran into much the same thing (almost verbatim, in fact) when I ran a 64bit OS for the very first time - last May....

    So, I was having my fun cause *finally* someone else had done the same.

    Look at it this way- you've just joined an elite club that includes you, me, and (I'll bet) a few others from here as well....

    Yes, you're right.
