Virus Detection?

Ha, this is pretty cool. I maintain a repository for family members and a few friends, and have email alerts sent to me so I can monitor them.

Well today apparently one of them downloaded a virus lol. My question is - is this Restic, part of VSS, or something else? Haven’t seen Restic do this before.

Now if you’ll excuse me I have a virus to remove… sigh lol


Ahh. Apparently Windows Defender stopped it and that’s a normal message when you can’t read a file because it’s quarantined. Been a long, long time since I’ve used Windows Defender lol

You are right! It’s not restic itself that is producing the specific message that the file is a virus.
