Trying to help someone who has the following situation:
In the Avast Scan Results, if you expand the Status header, the info you get is:
Error: Archive is password protected (42056)
After recently updating Adobe Flash and Adobe Reader, the many file names that are identified have the following extensions:
.js, .png, and .css
There are files such as:
C:\Users\name\AppData\Local.…\app.js
C:\Users\name\install_flashplayer10_mssa_aih.exe\adobe/_js/actionlaunchchrome.js
C:\Users\name\install_flashplayer10_mssa_aih.exe\adobe/_js/actionlaunchflashplayer.js
I understand why Avast cannot open archived files. However, Avast does not allow taking any action with these files.
Move to Chest, Repair, Delete, or, Do nothing, are choices which appear in the drop box next to ‘Apply this action for all’, but, the Apply button is grayed out.
Will these files continue to show in every scan that Avast makes?
How does one go about making sure these files do not show up again in a Scan Log?
Thanks for your help.
