I had a ton of false positives due to yesterday’s issues and after doing a boot scan I have a lot of items in my virus chest, almost 90. After reading up on all the issues people were having I figured these are all false positives as well, but when I try to restore an individual file the option is grayed out. If I try to restore 2, the option is clickable, but nothing happens when I click it. If I select all files at once and click restore, a window pops up telling me that x file that I’m trying to restore already exists and asks if I want to overwrite the file or skip it. This same window shows up for about half of the files before Windows 10 asks if I want Avast to make changes to my computer. If I allow it, it still doesn’t move the other files out of the chest.
It’s as if the virus chest only has a copy of each file and left the originals alone. I’ve never had to look through my chest before so I’m wondering if this is normal and what I should do about it.
