Where is my boot scan report?
« on: December 10, 2020, 04:44:27 AM »
Avast (version 20.9.2437) tells me that the Report of my Boot Scan will be found at C:\programfiles\avast software\avast\report - unfortunately, the report of the scan is NOT there.  Any ideas on where it can be found?

     Many thanks.  It helped a lot to know the exact filename of the report.  When I still couldn't find it, it dawned on me that it might be a hidden file - sure enough, it is.  WHY it's hidden is beyond me, but at least I can find it now.

     No viruses were found in my scan, but it did flag several files with Error Code # 42125 "ZIP archive is corrupted" - where can I get further information on this error?
