How can I view and copy Avast scan logs to post to this forum?
« on: November 14, 2010, 10:37:43 PM »
How can I view and copy these logs so that I can post them here? On the Avast program I can see my scan log but I cannot copy it.

What avast version are you using 4.8 or 5.0 ?

Which log are you talking about ?

If avast 5.0 - Most of the avast logs are in this folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Alwil Software\Avast5\log (this is for winXP, other OSes will differ.
Windows 10 Home 64bit/ Acer Aspire F15/ Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR4 memory, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD/ avast! free 24.2.6105 (build 24.2.8918.824) UI 1.0.799/ Firefox, uBlock Origin, uMatrix/ MailWasher Pro/ Avast! Mobile Security

Well you will have to look in whatever Vista now calls the old documents and settings folder. C:\ProgramData\Alwil Software\Avast5\Log

You didn't say what log it was you were viewing ?
