Spot the mistake!!

Hi, I tried to copy settings posted by Blackspear to a dot. Study the snatch and see that I have reversed one of the slashes and then tells me it is invalid. Any comments please? (I changed it.)

On further examination it would seem I have omitted a space between first 2 slashes. Should be c:\ / and not c:\/, sorry. Am I correct?

 

Place a space between C:\ and the first switch /clean

As in:

C:\ /clean

Cheers

 

Thanks Blackspear, it is corrected and now running.

 

Excellent, good to see

Cheers

 

While we are talking about:

"/clean /ah /all /subdir+ /heur+ /scanfile+ /scanboot+ /scroll+ /arch+ /pack+ /mapi- /pattern+ /scanboot+ /scanmbr+ /heurdeep /log+ /prompt"

why is it that /scanboot+ occurs twice?

LOL, because it is a mistake that you have picked up and 4800+ people haven't

I'll fix it shortly

Cheers

 

so "/clean /ah /all /subdir+ /heur+ /scanfile+ /scanboot+ /scroll+ /arch+ /pack+ /mapi- /pattern+ /scanboot+ /scanmbr+ /heurdeep /log+ /prompt"

would be the ULTIMATE line for scanning with the command line?

 

Yes as far as I can tell, less the double up of /scanboot+

See the following thread on how to set up a scheduled command line scan:

Hope this help...

Cheers

 

thanks for the detailed post

I already did all that stuff as for the schedualed scanning I prefer to just start it on my own so I just made a shortcut to " "c:\....\nod32.exe" /clean /ah /all /subdir+ /heur+ /scanfile+ /scanboot+ /scroll+ /arch+ /pack+ /mapi- /pattern+ /scanboot+ /scanmbr+ /heurdeep /log+ /prompt" in the quick launch with all the commands that way i can choose what to scan and its not squedualed

Thanks for that other post though you obviously took alot of time doing it I'm sure its appreciated by everyone.

 

My pleasure, so are you going to join us here at Wilders MAL123?

Cheers

 

I do have an account lol i just didnt remember the password... (got it in my email now) but i already started posting under MAL123 so... I guess i'll just login lol

 

much better lol

 

LOL, welcome back

Cheers

 

I thought the in depth scanning button makes this unnecessary?

Plus, we no longer need Paolo's shell extension for right click scanning do we?

 

I have not been able to find 'In-depth analysis' in the help that comes with NOD32 - could someone point me in the right direction to where this is documented, please?

Irrespective, I use Blackspear's command line parameters to invoke NOD32 from WinZip, otherwise only the default settings are used (it is because I had to prune these paramters to fit in WinZip that I stumbled across the doubling of /scanboot+)

Hi Blackspear, glad that post stirred a bit of interest.
Does it matter which "scanboot" is deleted, there is only one visible and it would save me the effort of typing it all out again?

 

You are right. It looks like Eset left it out of the Help File. The picture doesn't even show the button for In depth Analysis and there is no text explaining its purpose that I could find. It has been discussed in two threads here.

Many thanks

 

It does not matter which one you delete.

To save you typing it all out, just highlight it and copy and paste into the scan settings, or go back through and edit you scan by right clicking on it...

Hope this helps...

Cheers

 

Not if you want to run a scheduled scan.

I believe Paolo's right click option has gone by the wayside, provided your profile is setup correctly...

Hope this helps...

Cheers

 

Blackspear to the rescue once again. Thanks.

 

My pleasure, anytime

Cheers

 

Ah! Yes, I guess you can't save the "in depth scanning" config as one of your profiles. I don't do scheduled scans so I hadn't thought that through. Eset should make that an option for those who do scheduled scans (plus put something in the Help file about it).
