    When I right-click on the VulnDetect icon in the System tray you should offer the entry "Start Full System Scan" in the context menu.
    So users can start the scan with two mouse clicks.

    While the scan is in progress, you should show a little floating window with a small animation.
    After the scan is finished you should open the website with the scan results (the list of applications).
    Maybe you automatically log the user in (so the user does not have to enter the login credentials).

    For business users this feature (start a scan manually) should be configurable.
    So the administrator can allow of forbid this feature.

      A progress bar or a timer of the estimated remaining time would increase the usability, because users can estimate how long the scan will take.

        Currently you can start a full system scan manually if you use the Toolbox for VulnDetect
