Avira Antivirus file scan

My primary file manager is 32-bit on 64-bit Windows so lacks some proggies' context menus. With a previous Avira version, drag & drop to the GUI worked but version 15 scans a shed load of system files first so takes too long. A solution to that is welcome however it would still be less than ideal.

This command line method still works for WinRAR but does not work for a SendTo shortcut -i.e. it does run Luke Filewalker but the summary shows 0 files scanned.

Is there some way to invoke the 64-bit context menu scan (shlext64.dll) via a SendTo shortcut or other solution?
 
Have you already tried the settings for the on-demand scan like integrity check, rootkit scan which can be turned off to reduce the system file scanning you mentioned.
