Title: Can't delete files from the Virus Chest
Post by: REDACTED on February 27, 2017, 12:23:06 AM
I downloaded a bunch of files from an online storage account yesterday, and found out there are infected files among them. When I select all so that I can delete them, and choose "Delete" I get "Restore Selected Items?" I suspect it's just a mis-worded alert message, but in case it DOES restore them, I'm not confirming. Anyone else seen this? Using version 12.5. Tried checking for updates (non-beta) but there are none available.
