Re : How to tell what threats Sophos Deleted

Hello, any help or knowledge is greatly appreciated.

I being a newbie unknowingly set the program to delete instead of log on my first scan apparently it found 1 threat which after i scanned another 3 times has apparently been deleted. Is there anyway to find out what that file was ??  I am afraid it may have deleted something that could cause instability, i am not having any problems at the moment , but i am getting paranoid and really want to find out what sophos deleted.

Please help :smileyindifferent:

  • Hi,

    A new log is created for every "Scan Local Drives" you run, so what you want to look at is presumably the log of the very first scan than you ran?  In which case navigate to /Users/<your account>/Library/Logs/Sophos Anti-Virus/Scans/Scan This Mac/   and open the oldest log file in there.

    I hope this helps.
