Thanks very much for the input.

I did examine (for starters) the .ps1 clamscan script file but owing to my pretty much total ignorance of Powershell syntax and time being exceptionally tight over the last couple of days I haven't yet got to grips with it because it seems I will have to research script privilege change and some other stuff; plus I couldn't see, absent comments to the code, what the operand file/s were. (That's probably just me being incoherent btw).

Anyway I now have what is for me a neat and workable solution based on simple use of the two programs' logs and avoiding batch files and cmd line typing (doubtless just one among many potentials I could explore, time permitting) - please see my reply to G.W. Haywood's response to my initial posting.

I will probably stick with ClamAV now, especially given the remarks re: versioning of ClamWin that were earlier referenced by you in your quoted post here:

Two more things...

In the scripts, "Pause" is supposed to be on a new line, not on the same line as "Start-Process".

Also I forgot to mention that there is a new version of ClamWin released June 7th that should work okay: https://clamwin.com/content/view/251/1/

Hi Robert,

You're correct that there is no config file for clamscan.exe. There also isn't 
any
config option to have the command-line applications stay open if you're
double-clicking them.  ClamAV wasn't designed to be double-clicked.  The
problem you're facing is not really specific to ClamAV but really is for any
command line application.  But I think I can help...
