Hello. If you can help, that would be great!
Latest edition of Avast Home edition free. Ran scan in safe mode. Avast found trojan, Win32:Agent-CoH[tri] in G:\pagefile.sys on external hard drive, used to check an malfunctioning O/S.(Can't find much on the web on this virus for some reason) Wanted to move to quarantine in virus chest but virus chest would not work, stating error. The only option available was to delete the file.
Two Questions:
1) How do I restore chest function for safe mode? Or perhaps the chest function does not work when external hard drive is being scanned?
2) Pagefile.sys seems to be an important file. What are the consequences from having deleted this file, if any, and how do I restore the proper file?
Thank you for your help.
