To return from the scan result back to the main screen of AVG AntiVirus for Mac, click Go to Dashboard.
The scan result will be kept until you resolve all threats, click Ignore Results on the component in Dashboard,
or close AVG AntiVirus for Mac. Please note that any unresolved (ignored) files will remain in their
original locations, accessible and potentially dangerous!
How to delete threats manually
If AVG AntiVirus cannot remove a file (typically due to access rights) to Quarantine, we recommend that you
remove it manually:
1. Put down the exact location and name of the infected file.
2. Locate the file in Finder and delete it (move to Trash).
3. Empty Trash.
If that is not possible either, please refer to the Contact & Support chapter for further help.
If you have a reason to believe that a detected file is actually clean and harmless, please send it to us via
Sample Submit Form for analysis. Please select "False alarm" in the form. Similarly, if there is a suspicious
file that AVG AntiVirus does not detect, but you believe that it might be infected, you can send it to us via the
same form to examine (in this case, select "Malware for analysis" in the form).
