Dr.Web Scanner runs an express or full scan of the whole file system or scans critical files and folders only.
Dr.Web Scanner settings for computers running macOS are available in the Scanner for workstations section, for macOS Server—in the Scanner for servers section.
General
•Enable the Check archives option to scan files in archives.
•Enable the Check email files option to scan email files.
•In the Scanning time of one element field, specify the maximum time for scanning a file. Value 0 means that the time to scan one file is unlimited.
|
Scanning the contents of archives and email files and increasing the time for scanning a single file may slow down the computer and increase the overall scanning time. |
Actions
In this section, you can configure actions that Dr.Web will apply to threats detected by Scanner. The actions are set separately for each type of malicious and suspicious objects. These actions vary for different object types.
•Cure, move to quarantine if not cured. Restores the original state of the object before infection. If the object is incurable or the attempt of curing fails, the object is moved to quarantine. The action is available only for the objects infected with a known virus that can be cured except for the Trojan programs and files within complex objects, such as email files and file containers. •Cure, delete if not cured. Restores the original state of the object before infection. If the object is incurable or the attempt of curing fails, the object is deleted. The action is available only for the objects infected with a known virus that can be cured except for the Trojan programs and files within complex objects, such as email files and file containers. •Move to quarantine. Moves a detected threat to a special folder isolated from the rest of the system. •Delete. Deletes the object that poses a threat. It is the most effective way to remove all types of threats. •Ignore. Skips the object without any actions. Notifications are not displayed.
