Thanks MikeNavy for your information. I wasn't aware of the large attack surface that clam has. I'm relatively new to Linux and wanted to play around with the context menu. I find Linux Mint to be a great OS and I love being able to configure different things with the system like adding menu items. |

Use the Context menu to scan for infected files in directories and sub-directories with a simple right click of the mouse.
Software needed for this to work is clamtk and zenity
sudo apt install clamtk zenity
Create a file called clamscan.nemo_action and placed it in .local/share/nemo/actions
Note: the .local folder is hidden and located in your home directory.
If you would like to use this way to scan for viruses, please note that the scan will run silently and display a pop-up window indicating if you do or do not have a virus.
If you would like to have any viruses automatically removed, you will need to modify 2 lines in the clamtk-scan.sh file
nemo -q
