What Location is Avast Virus Chest Stored on PC

:smiley: Hi all.

I hope you are well.

I want to clean and reload my PC system due to it’s slow problems. Is there a folder on my PC that I should copy and or backup to external drive where the Avast Virus Chest is kept where I may want to reclaim some files?

go to the guide and attach the basic scan logs from mbam frst+addation

to answer your question im not sure where the files in the virus chest is stored but it most be a safe location anyway.

:slight_smile: Thank you mikaelrask.

But I don’t think it would be safe if I wiped my PC.

I’m pretty sure that will be my remedy for my extremely slow PC.
