    Sorry, I don't think the had added the policy for Enterprise Console 4 and Sophos ver9.

    I did ask the same question since Sophos ver4.

    The only solution is you have to copy the config file to the Microsoft default user folder on the fresh computer, so that any new user who created on the PC will get the settings from the default user folder.

    It sound wierd to me when right click scanning only can "detect only" but not "detect and let user decide to clean or not" for the viruses since years ago and they never plan to added in to get the policy from the console. Atleast it not yet happen on Sophos ver9.

    Hello Matt,

    What are the settings you want to deploy?

    IMO right-click scanning is for "special circumstances" (only) as the  on-access scanner should protect you while you're doing your regular work. You might want to scan an archive or perform a scan on all files in a certain directory if "something" has raised suspicion and you'd probably want to use suitable settings.

    Also I think that "let user decide" is not really necessary as the items will show in the Quarantine Manager where you can select the desired action. There's no need to do this right away.
