    once in quarantined area right click on the file and select restore and exclude from scanning. Assuming that is not malware in disguise of course

    Also why do they even have the Restore feature if as soon as I have Restored the File why it delete's it again I can see it restored then bang it's gone again why not have a feature where you can tell it to leave it alone for a certain length of time before it tries to delete the file.
