Scan window and scan log

The scan window shows currently scanned objects including their location, number of threats found (if any), number of scanned objects and scan duration. The bottom part of the window is a scan log that shows detection engine version number, date and time when the scan started and target selection.

Once the scan is in progress, you can click Pause if you want to temporarily interrupt the scan. Resume option is available when the scan process is paused.

note

It is normal that some files, such as password protected files or files exclusively being used by the system (typically pagefile.sys and certain log files), cannot be scanned.

After the scan has finished, you will see the scan log with all relevant information related to the specific scan.
