Scan with Netgear Armor not working
I like to scan anything I download, and I usually do so by right clicking on the item in my folder, selecting "Netgear Armor" and then selecting "Scan with Netgear Armor," but yesterday that stopped working. Re-installing the program hasn't fixed it. Perhaps the program is broken? I'm using Windows 11.
FOUND WORKAROUND solution.In case anyone else encounters this problem, solution below:
It works when activated from the "old-windows layout" right click menu accessible via right click>more options
So the netgear armour functions per file/folder can be activated by:
>Right click file
>more options (bottom option in the rightclick menu)
>netgear
>NA scan or shredder

Try restarting the PC?
I tried that before posting here. I had even tried uninstalling and reinstalling, and nothing. Now it seems to work sometimes. A couple of days ago it worked, today it doesn't again.
Might contact Armor support about this.
