I'm running v13.0.22.0, and I'm getting some odd behavior.
So, here's the preliminary information:
I have all scans set to "No cleaning".
A scheduled scan ran and a post-scan alert came up showing me the detections it found (all in archives). I chose "No Action" for all of them.
So far, so good. However, then I noticed this:
Under the "Computer Scan" tab, the log entry shows "Scan completed: All detections cleaned".
The Quarantine shows all of the files where detections occurred.
The above items would indicate that ESET cleaned files that I explicitly told it not to touch. For ESET to modify/delete files I told it to leave alone, that would be bad.
And yet, as far as I can tell, all of the files still exist in the file system and haven't been deleted.
This is very confusing to me.
If ESET correctly did as I instructed and ignored the detections, then I would expect that the log entry would show that detections were ignored, not cleaned. In addition, I would not expect anything to be added to the Quarantine.
And yet, if ESET *did* clean all the files, then why are they still in the file system?
