Scanning from the File Explorer

Panda Antivirus 6.0 becomes an integral part of the operating system on which it is installed. This makes the handling of the antivirus even easier.

To be precise, Panda Antivirus 6.0 offers the possibility of starting a virus scan from the Windows File Explorer.

To start a scan from the File Explorer, proceed as follows:

  1. Select the area or areas to be scanned. Any area in the File Explorer may be selected.

  2. Right-click any part of the selection. In the contextual menu that appears, choose the Panda Antivirus option.

  3. Once you have done this, the same scan progress window that appears when a Panda Antivirus 6.0 immediate scan is run will appear on the screen.

Scanning from the File Explorer facilitates the use of the antivirus as it permits you to scan the desired areas without even having to open the antivirus.
