individual file scan , opens full scan menu in malware bytes?
jraju:
Hi, After log on today, i tried the tool, the first try pops up the normal scan screen. But second try ,onwards, it is working properly. So, could i assume that the problem lies in triggering the first time the mbam.exe. But Samson idea found to have worked for someone. But not for me. Again, i will try samson solution, and report back.
Is it possible that , it first option is always to update the data base, so would it be there the cause . When i click, if the mbam opens immediately the UAC, i am confidant of its working. But if it takes some more seconds, i am sure that the other screen is going to show and it is always.

I'm sorry to hear that this is still causing you so much trouble .
Until I read your OP I happily lived with right-clicking twice ( see my earlier post )
You may be on to something regarding the first launch forcing an update ( since last boot ).
One thing I have noticed is that I only ever have to "double-launch" the app the first time I use it ,
it then works perfectly until my next system boot .
It's a head-scratcher :undecided:

Hi, Jethro,
Some time it takes three to four launches to get rid of this. What would you think that it would make this to happen. Even if i change the update settings, to not to look for updates, this behaviour continues.
So, it is not known whether it is a bug in the program. If i post all the context menu , in shellview, then disabled the programs that i do not want, also does not fix this.
When i right click to know the properties, the target is naturally to mbam.exe, but i could not find the right click menu in the program installation folder. Particularly this behaviour is annoying , as if one wants to scan individually downloaded file and tries this scan, if it loads the normal screen, just imagine the time it will take to go to that file. Even customizing scan is having only options of entire drive like c: and D etc.

Hi, One more clue, when correctly opens it opens, scan tab, whereas , if it opens not correctly, it opens dashboard. Would you please say , why?
Jethro Bodine:
Yes , what you are describing is what I observe also , but I can not offer any explanation for it.
Did you try the "clean install " tool that Samson suggested in Reply #5 above ?
