just wanted to know

i found this in the warning log file and also in error log file
found thousands of this in warning and error file the file space total 4mb and 8 in no.
Just verbose of the logs… I won’t worry that much, to say, nothing.
thanks but just wanted to mention they have already 40mb space
and growing i cannot delete that files if i delete them i get message
cannot delete the file already in use make sure the disk is not write protected
and if i don’t delete them they will take complete memory
how to delete those files then?
Why do you want to delete that files?
Are they infected? Did you test them into www.virustotal.com ?
Did you run avast at boot time?
no they are not infected files i told you that they are increasing in no and each of them occupies 4mb
space if they continued to grow they will occupy complete space in the memory
and then there will be no space left that why i wanted to delete them
get it
anyway - it would be helpful to have the files for testing
i don’t think they are infected file they are named Warning1210218814, ,
they are present in C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Avast4\DATA\log
and they are text file how can they be a infected file when avast has created them
how to delete those files then ?
that’s a misunderstanding… i don’t want to get your warning logs… the files which i meant are C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRIVERS\mrxdav.sys and C:\windows\system32\webclnt.dll - we want to replicate the error, that will help us to fix the bug…
Right click on the AVAST icon in the tray, view log, file, settings, log size limit.
You can also purge the log.
i have just set the logging level to critical error
and no warning file generated so far
is it correct or not ?
it is not about those two files . error 0000a474 is written in front of each file in the warning.log
and warning.log takes memory space 4mb each and is growing in no.
it is not growing now after setting the logging level to critical error
The log is only meant to give you information on events. If you don’t care of those information you can disable the logging completely. Virus warnings are presented with a pop up anyway.
So, just set the log size limit…
i have set it to critical error ,till now no file has generated
avast4 folder size had grown to 113mb before that.
Are there any Debug*.txt files? If so, you can disable avast self-defense module and delete them. avast folder could vary its size due to the number of installed languages, skins, files into Chest, VRDB and logs/dumps.
i just disable the self-defence module got the warning message clicked enter
deleted the error,warning files the folder size now 60mb normal
thanks.
