List of Installed Files?

Question

Hi,

I'm thinking about installing this product and giving it a try.

I've read the documentation and searched this forum, but I'm unable to find a list of files that this product installs.

I'd prefer to know what's going to be installed and where it's going to be installed before I give this a go. Knowing this will also inform my decision about whether or not to install.

Can someone in Support provide a definitive list?

Thanks much!

Hi Brian,

Here's a list of directories where files are installed:

/Library/Sophos Anti-Virus (the Virus Data and anti-virus software)

/Applications (the GUI application and Sophos Remove)

/Library/Preferences (your preferences)

/Library/LaunchDaemons/ (launchd configuration to start the software)

/Library/Caches/com.sophos.* (cached installer files)

~/Library/Application Support/Sophos Anti-Virus (your custom scan preferences)

~/Library/Preferences (your preferences)

~/Library/Logs/Sophos Anti-Virus/ (scan logs)
