On demand scanner cleans automatically when instructed not to

[nminkov 0]

Here is how to reproduce:

 

1. Set On demand scanner "Cleaning level" to "No cleaning"

2. Disable real time scanner

3. Create EICART test file (open notepad ducument, enter  "X5O!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}$EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*", save the file)

4. In Computer/Windows Explorer, right click on the EICART file and select "Scan with ESET Smart Security"

 

NOD32 will detect and clean the file automatically without asking user first, which is exactly the opposite to what the options state. It extremely annoying and actually very broken, especially when some file can't be recovered from the quarantine.

 

Please fix it

 

Than you

No probs here, I was presented with a window with action selection. Perhaps you changed the cleaning level for a different profile than the context menu profile?

Hello Marcos, 

 

Indeed, just discovered the that the context menu has a different profile (an overkill even for me, but why not).

 

Changed the option, now it detects the file and says "action selection postponed until scan completion". Scan is over, i click OK and that is. No option is given to me for action on detected file (e.g. repair, delete, ignore)?

You should be able to select the desired action from a drop-down menu (clean / delete / no action) after scan completion.
