Boot scan is to remove nasty malware that cannot be removed on normal system, right?
When a system gets infected with ransomware, sometimes system cannot boot normal & safe mode both i.e ransomware screen appears before system reaches desktop. In this case you cannot run boot scan.
I think it would be good if there is an option in Avast to show “Avast Boot Scan” during system boot. Avast can keep this option disabled by default if they think it is not good for average users. And if Avast is password protected, to run Boot Scan password should be required.
What you think guys?
