#Avast report file scan location windows 10#
And I'm left looking around in Avast and elsewhere trying to find what it has done, either to itself and its settings or to some other program or even Windows 10 settings. With the addition of the ability to schedule Smart Scans, I had been thinking this was my ideal security program with every option I wanted available. I was hoping I'd missed something, but it appears not. The only setting i can find is the one to schedule Smart Scans under Protection > Virus Scans > Custom Scans > Smart Scan > More > Settings. And the help pages also say there is a settings section for the Smart Scan under Settings ▸ General ▸ Smart Scan. I also see that the help pages are out of date: on Smart Scans they say hitting resolve will give me an explanation of what the problem is and options, but that first hitting resolve - after it showing a problem in that final 'Advanced' section but not what the problem was - just caused some action to be taken with no explanation, no choice and just a very unhelpful message about it having closed some unspecified 'door'. I did look in \ProgramData\AVAST Software\Avast\report\, as I saw that being where reports went if reporting was turned on in the other scans while I was going through all the settings and customizing all the scans I could, but there's no file there about or from the Smart Scan, and there is no Viruses & Malware.txt, just reports for each shield and the two other types of scan I've run (Quick and Full), none of which had anything added to them about whatever the Smart Scan did.
