-missing items in TC 8.50beta3 context menus

[msiivola]

Two most important Norton Internet Security options are visible in 64bit Windows 8 File Explorer's context menu, but missing in both 32&64bit TC 8.50beta3 context menus: Scan Now and File Insight. This makes virus checking burdensome.

Try renaming totalcmd.exe to explorer.exe. Does it work now?

[msiivola]

No, it does not work with 32bit TC, i.e. Totalcmd.exe

...but it DOES work when I rename 64bit, i.e. TOTALCMD64.EXE, to explorer.exe.

Can this be used as a permanent solution?

Looks like the problem in your too paranoic Norton, not in TC.

Yes TC should work just fine when renamed to explorer.exe. The missing 32-bit menu items mean that Norton has only 64-bit shell extensions installed.

What's about x64 shell (AFAIK, TCMDX64.EXE)?
It should work.

Thanks for the working solution, Christian!

TCMDX64.EXE is only needed to show 64-bit extensions in 32-bit TC. You don't need it for 64-bit TC. It will probably not show the Norton extensions in 32-bit TC because it's not called explorer.exe.
