Having problems with right click virus scan

I am having issues with the Mc Afee viruscan. If I right click one file to scan it, it will go into quick scan and scan everything within windows.  My hard drive is brand new, it was replaced Thursday. I have spoken to 4 different people from Mc Afee tech support, and no one has been able to help me resolve this issue.. I have un installed, re installed, changed my IE settings. I have done everything but yet still face this issue. can someone please help me, I am so frustrated right now.

I already answered your other post here: https://community.mcafee.com/message/250670#250670

Or, Technical Support is  free to reach by phone or online chat, they can probably sort this out for you.

Hello,

I am having the exact same problem as you. Brand new machine with fresh install of McAfee Security Center. Any resolution? Thanks.

It appears that the McAfee program used when right clicking a file is McCtxMenuFromWrk.dll if that's worth anything.

Hi garyb0125,

This issue is already been reported to the McAfee Product development team & they are working closely towards the resolution of this issue, hope this should be fixed soon.

I will keep up posted on the resolution status once that is done.

I appreciate your patience and co-operation on this.
