enter masks will absolute paths to objects:
• C:\dir\*.* or C:\dir\* or C:\dir\ – all files in folder C:\dir\
• C:\dir\*.exe – all files with the extension .exe in the folder C:\dir\
• C:\dir\*.ex? – all files with the extension .ex? in the folder C:\dir\, where ?
can represent any one character
• C:\dir\test – only the file C:\dir\test
In order for the scan to be carried out recursively, check Include subfolders.

Remember that File Anti-Virus will scan only the files that are included in the
protection scope created. Files not included in that scope will be available for use
without being scanned. This increases the risk of infection on your computer.
