Repair Button Use the Repair button to examine files for viruses and Trojan horses, repairing or deleting them when found. Before using the Repair button, you may want to check the Repair preference settings by clicking on the Preferences button. Virex will normally ask you for confirmation before repairing or deleting files. However, you may change the Virex application preference settings to instruct Virex to repair or delete files without asking. To repair entire volumes, select those you wish to examine by clicking on them in the volume list. Each time you click on a volume, it toggles between being selected and deselected. After selecting the desired volumes, click the Repair button. Virex will examine the selected volumes, repairing infected files and reporting the results in the report area. While examining the files, a status bar replaces the buttons in the main Virex window. You may stop the examination at any time by clicking the stop button in the upper-right corner. To repair a particular file or folder instead of an entire volume, hold down the option key and click the Repair button. A file selection dialog will appear, allowing you to choose the file or folder you wish to examine. You can also use “drag and drop” to diagnose files selected in Finder windows and on the Macintosh desktop. Drag the selected items onto the Virex Repair button.
