I am finding that when I try to do a shell extension test with AVG SoHo
v 7.5.488 I am no longer able to test or scan just one file. Instead it is trying to test all my files in my Program folder (instead of Downloads where it used to be set to scan)

I have tried to correct the path however unless I am doing something wrong I cannot find the User Test Path option.

I am in the Control Center and have selected the Shell Exension button, selected Settings. Under Test Properties, there should be 5 options

Objects to scan
Scan details
Report
Action to take
Advanced settings

For some reason Objects to Scan no longer is listed. I cannot figure out how to get it back.

Can someone help me troubleshoot this?? Help would be greatly appreciated!!

I wanted to update my problem and explain how I resolved my problem.

I figured out that the Objects to scan to scan option is not available when in Shell Extension Test. Taking another look I realized that settings under Scan Details was changed so that "Scan System Areas before the test starts" and "Scan Active Processes for viruses" were checked which was causing the scan to go to my Programs folder.

Unchecked those two selections and my Shell Extension Test now just tests the one object that I have highlighted.

Hopes this helps others in the future.
