hi,I have avast on my android,I was transfering files to my pc and back and noticed in the folder of android in the downloads section there was some weird file which I dont remenber the name but was like apk.part extension whatever

after disconecting the mobile I made a virus scan and it showed it as a trojan,clicked on “resolve”( my version is in spanish so I dont know if thats the correct translation,it sayd “resolver esto”) and I think it deleted it

however I want to know if there was some risks,I think it may have been due to a link I clicked that was send by a friend,sent to a suspicious page offering me to instal some app,but I havent installed anything and havent noticed anything strange on the phone

is there some way to see a log and see the file name or type in case is needed? I dont seem to find that

Hi,

you should find additional information in the Activity Log. It’s located in the overflow menu (three dots) at the top of the dashboard screen.

I found the activity log,switched language to english,saw it before and it dont see to show in much detail about the malicious file found,just that it found a problem

I want to know if my smartphone was at some risk,do I need to change passwords or something like that?
