I have a 150GB hard drive. After running scan several times the scan will stop at 40GB. I get a message C:\Documents and Settings\Owner.…\CAU7YVAH Unable to Scan : T… I have run a search on my computor for this file and it does not show up. I am using Avast Home 4.1 on an Home XP machine.
Looks like a temporary file. But I can’t tell if you don’t supply the full path and filename. Try this. Disable all apllications from running. Remove all temporary files, cookies, temp cache files, temp inet files and such, than run a scan.
Hello Eddie
I have no idea the path or file name. What I posted was all Avast gave me. I will try your idea and see. Thanks for replying so fast.
You can find the full path/filename in the Avast log file.
And if you wanna hang out on this board, get used to fast replies ;D
Let us know if this solved the problem or not.
Eddy I ran another scan after deleting temp files and sure enough the file did not show up. Avast still stopped at 40.8GB. Is this normal? I am new to Avast since I was using Norton.
