Hi, sorry i didn’t find the answer i needed with the links provided. Do i simply delete the folder, after extracting the file to it (after i am done scanning through virus total)?
The post from DavidR answers your question. After submitting the file to virus total, just remove the exclusion from file system shield. The file would then be placed back into Virus Chest.
Edit: After extracting the file, there is still a copy in Virus Chest. Just remember to remove all exclusions related to it and delete the extracted file.
do you mean this?
What do i do afterward to put the file back in the chest?
when extracting a file from chest, a copy remain in chest, so yes you may delete the one in that folder…
see first link i posted
Yes, that answers my question. Thank You all for the help.
