Scanner

These settings control the way the scanner conducts it business. The setting are divided into four different sections:

General Option


Defines the way it communicates with the user.

Enable sound:

If selected it gives an audio alarm on virus detection. Default setting is ON.

Prompt On Detection:

If selected, it prompts the user for action when a virus is detected. Otherwise, it renames all the infected files. Default setting is ON.

Create Activity Log:

Creates a log file and keeps a detailed report of every scanning. Default is ON.

If Unrepairable File:

Before removing virus from the file, Quick Heal performs a feasibility test. At times virus infects the file in such a way that it is not possible to recover the file properly. In that case Quick Heal marks it as Unrepairable.

There is no point in removing viruses from such file and damaging it in the process. Hence Quick Heal only provides 2 options

Default Option is Rename.

Advanced Option:

This section helps the user configure the use of various scanning engines.

SCAN:

This section sets up the scanner for the files to be scanned.
