how do you turn on archive scanning thanks
Personally I feel there is limited benefit from scanning archives. Archive (zip, rar, etc.) files are by their nature are inert, you need to extract the files and then you have to run them to be a threat. Long before that happens avast’s Standard Shield should have scanned them and before an executable is run that is scanned.
However, from the simple user interface (SUI) when you select the area to be scanned, local drives, etc. a sliding window opens there is a check box that you check to scan archives.
