Can't delete/move to chest?
« on: July 10, 2014, 03:41:10 AM »
avast! just did a full system search. It found about 56 infected files, so I decided that I would move them to the chest for a while, then delete them when I'm sure they weren't marked by mistake.
However, when I tried to move to the chest it gave me an error stating that "no such directory or file exists." I tried to delete it, but again, it couldn't
Is there any way to fix it? Avast detected a file before the scan and moved it to the chest, in case that's important.

Most probably, a temporary file that was removed/deleted (by Windows or its program).
I won't worry about that. Run a full scan (or at boot time) again.
Congratulations! I've taken the safest action: send file to Chest is much better than delete :)
