Using previous Eraser versions provided me with right-click access to Erase individual files. Current version has not implemented this even though this has been enabled through Preferences. Any info appreciated, thanks.
 
No right-click context menu for Erase heh? Well it is there with v5.7, so who knows what happened with your own individual setup.

A suggestion might be to add the context menu entry yourself manually to the registry. To to this, copy and paste the text below into Notepad, and save it as a registry merge file (*.reg). For instance you could save it as "Erase Right Click.reg" or something similar. Once you do that, just double click on the *.reg file to merge it with the registry, then reboot your PC for it to take effect.

-Begin Cut and Paste Below-

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Erasext]
@="{8BE13461-936F-11D1-A87D-444553540000}"
 
You could also try turning off Entropy Polling i.e.
1. Edit->Perferences->General
2. Untick the field that relates to Entropy Polling
