Boot time scan logs
« on: August 11, 2015, 09:42:21 PM »
I ran a boot time scan, which found some corrupted files, but how do I find the scan log and what was done about it?
I can't find anything like that in the menus.

Thanks.

It did nothing as they are not infected

So knowing I have some corrupted files is useless information since I can't even identify then now?

avast may say corrupted if they are compressed archives it cant unpack, anayway it is just a scan error message and nothing to worry about

in my opinion, scan error should not be in the log, or it should be hidden away as normaly you have no use of it
