Scan found mid serious malware. Removed it. Rebooted and rescanned - no infection. WSA says Last infected scan: Never!

Not very important but anyway.

Best regards

I haven't been able to reproduce this here (although I only tried with the ever dangerous Eicar :)). Could you let me know if you logged into the same user account that you started when you received the infection?

Thanks!

Same login and when I scanned again immideatly after the dertection the scan result said no detection and somewhere in that window it said last detection: never. ??

When I checked GUI today it said I have had 10 threats removed. ??

Ill keep my eyes and get back to you if I find something similar again.

When it scanned at startup it said 10 removed threats. Afterscanned finished 20 min ago - when I hoover over the icon it says "No infections found". I started GUI and it says 12 removed threats?? What are the thought behind this random information.

If the hoovering at least said " last scan found 2 threats and removed them successfully" which is what the GUI said happened.

Scanned again and the scan window says last infected scan : never.

Something in the way this is communicated could be better?

Can I set WSA up to never terminate threats/infections without asking me first?

Best Regards

You can disable Settings - Realtime Shield:

"Automatically quarantine previously blocked files"

and


"Remember actions on blocked files"
