Windows 10: How to put a Symantec Endpoint 14 icon in the context menu in Windows Explorer

Guys, the Symantec Endpoint installation didn't put the program icon in the context menu of my Windows 11 Pro 23H2 Windows Explorer.How do I get it to show up on the left side, like other programs, where it says "Scan for Viruses..."?Thanks for the help.Regards,José Roberto.

context menu "open with" freezes all explorer and no icon update

I had several symptoms:

1. "open with" in the context menu would freeze teh context menu and all explorer processes; I could only use the task manager to restart explorer
   
2. in explorer, a folder with jpg images usually would show the image with "large icon" and bigger, but nothing would show but the default icon
   
3. folders content icon would not be updated and show an empty folder (while it is not empty)
   

 

Symantec Endpoint?

I had Windows 7 and used Symantec Endpoint and worked great, now that I upgraded to Windows 10, I am being told that the Endpoint does not work with Windows 10, and that I Microsoft Defender is turned off and it will not let me turn it on. If I delete
teh files for Endpoint, will it allow Defender to come on? What if I just add teh new edition of Symantec Endpoint that says it works on Windows 10? I feel much safer using teh Endpoint then any other virus protection. Have been on computers since 1974 and
used many different ones and had troubles with all of them until about 2000 when i started with Endpoint and have not had a single virus, hack, or anything get thru.

 

Windows 10. Symantec endpoint protection uninstall

Hi FLORIN1963,

I assume you have done this:

Open the Settings App (gear icon on your Start Button)

Go to Apps

Scroll down to find Symantec Endpoint Protection

Click that and choose Uninstall

If that does not work, click the link below for Symantec's instructions on how to uninstall Symantec Endpoint Protection:
