I cann't see the antivirus real-time file scanner, scanning the files

[saull28]

I want to request to bring back that feature directly on the Status window, so users can check the antivirus is working and active, same thing for all the other 3 scanners or shields

You can use the EICAR file to see if everything is working.

Check your settings:

Of course I know about that, but that’s not I requested, I want to see the files it checks when I wish to check its functionality and what files it’s checking

An old topic from around the time it was removed over a year ago, as you can see from the old avastUI.

Well, I think you can see the priority assigned to this function, with this topic almost a year old and no further indication if or when this function may (or may not) return.

The stats will return but that will be later rather than sooner.

OK thanks you for the useful post, hopefully it will, it’s specially useful for PC Techs as myself
