Avast used to have, like virtually every other AV that exists, an option to allow you to see what exactly it was currently live scanning. Even though the file names might fly by as a blur, you could still see what file(s) Avast was scanning at any given time. It appears though that over the past several versions this functionality was removed, or very cleverly hidden as to befuddle an 18 year IT veteran.
I see my Avast icon doing 'stuff' all the time, but cannot find what exactly it's doing and not knowing or understanding its behavior is concerning because I can't tell if it's scanning my VMWare VM files (which it shouldn't be doing, but I've come to distrust exclusion lists over the years), or temp internet files, etc...
Is this function truly gone, or just very very hidden?
Thanks!
