Can't scan all files with avast prior to migrate

HI all,  Finally am replacing my 08 macbook pro with a 2014 model.  Have not booted the new one yet.  Wanted to make sure that my transfer  of files on source computer did not move over any infected files that couldn't be scanned under Avast.  When I ran my last scan on the 08 source computer, it mentioned it was unable to scan 170 files.  I went to the avast site and it suggested these types of files are usually password protected.  I don't want to migrate any "infected" files that perhaps may lie in the unscanned group.  Any suggestions?

Hi,
Uninstalling software does not always remove all the files from the system, Decent software manufactures often inform you that not all files have been removed, and suggest that they can be deleted via Windows Explorer.
If these "left behind" files are non executionable, that is, they don't start the application, then there will be no problem sending them to the recycling bin.

  • CAN'T UNINSTALL ALL FILES WITH WINDOWS

    In trying to move Photoshop Album 2 Starter Edition from my "C" drive to my "D" drive it became corrupted and the Uninstall file became disconnected from the program. I downloaded it from the web again and was able to use the Windows XP uninstall to remove it. But, after doing so I ran a search of my computer and found the following two files still on my "C" drive: Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 Starter Edition and Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 Starter Edition.msi. When I click on the program file I get an error dialog box noting:"Photoshop Album cannot start or continue because of missing file(s). Please reinstall."
    The second (.msi) file appears to be an installer file located in: "C\WINDOWS\Downloaded Installations\{30F65707-62BC-4443-BB21-86DA6E7F8A55}"
    My question is: can I simply click on delete for these two files or do I have to go into the registry to remove either of these. And, if so, which registry keys do I need to change/remove?
    Now that there is a Photoshop Album 3.0 Starter Edition, I want to download and install it, but on my "D" drive.
    If anyone can help me figure this out I would greatly appreciate it.

    For the D600 NEF's you have two alternatives: (1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software)  Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.3  Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.3  You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click.

  • I can't open PDF files with adobe flash player

    I have installed it and whenever I try to open pdf files it says I need to agree with your liscens and you do that automatically when you download it. I have followed all your instructions on your website and uninstalled it and installed again, but I can't open pdf files with it. I don't know what the problem is exactly, but it's really frustrating..

    Flash Player CANNOT open PDFs because they AREN'T Flash Documents.
    Adobe Reader opens PDFs.
    To accept the license agreement (NOT the one you accepted to download or install - the one for USE)
    Windows:
    Go to: C/Program Files(x86)/Adobe/Reader 11.0/Reader and double click the eula.exe file. The license agreement will open for you to accept.
    Mac:
    Go to: Mac HD/Applications and double click the Reader app. The license agreement will open THE FIRST TIME you open it.

  • How can I export a file with transparent background?

    Hi all,
    I know InDesign doesn't allow to export a PNG file, but I need my file to be in image file format with transparent background.
    I'm still learning so I am stuck here. How can I export a file with transparent background?

    If you can't get the PNG file export to work, you can export a pdf and open it in Photoshop, from there you can save it as whatever you like.

  • Can I view .WMV files with 10.7?

    Can I view .wmv files with OS 10.7.2?

    Mac OS X has no native ability to view WMV files, but you can download and install the free codecs from Flip4Mac:
    http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.htm
    and use QuickTime Player. Note that not all WMV codecs have been ported to Mac, nor has the copy protection system, so not all videos will work.
    Regards.

  • I suddenly can't watch .mov files with the QuickTime Player x?

    I suddenly can't watch .mov files with the QuickTime Player x? There is always the message, i should look after new software! Can you help me?

    Handy-dandy cut and paste to the rescue!
    you need to install some other stuff to get the full file functionality back.
    Here's the list.
    Start with QT 7.6.6. - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL923
    Get Perian, and install it. - http://perian.org
    then VLC, - http://videolan.org
    DivX - http://divx.com - and the
    Flip4Mac package from Telestream - http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac/
    A52/AC3 downloader: https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/21875/a52codec - In this installer package there is an audio A52Codec.component. DO NOT USE IT! Throw it out and use the one that is linked below.
    This is what I've put into my system and so far I've gotten every file to run fine, even my oldest videos.
    These are codecs you should see.
    In System/Library/QuickTime
         AppleIntermediateCodec.component
         AppleMPEG2Codec.component* (*optional if you've bought it)
         DivX Decoder.component
         Flip4Mac WMV Advanced.component
         Flip4Mac WMV Export.component
         Flip4Mac WMV Import.component
    In your Home/Library/QuickTime/
         AC3MovieImport.component (you may or may not want this component, in some instances it causes conflicts. In my system, it doesn't. Who knows why? I don't.)
         Perian.component
    For AC3 sound that is in most .mkv files, you need the A52Codec.component, this is the one you want, here: https://code.google.com/p/subler/downloads/detail?name=A52Codec.component.zip - unzip the file and put the component into the System/Library/Audio/Plug-ins/Components
    Go back to your Perian settings and in the Audio Output button, set it to 'Multi Channel Sound' - Ignore the message Perian puts up and select it.
    By doing a 'Get Info' on your files and where it says 'Open With' - default them to the QuickTime 7 program. Perian no longer will work with QuickTime Player so you must have QT 7.6.6 and set it so it is the default for all the filetypes you use.
    It works perfectly with QT7. So far I've gotten ALL my old videos to play.
    .avi, .mov (with the AC3 sound), .wmv, .flv, .mp4 and .m4v. all run fine as do all the older formats.
    Good luck!
    Deb.

  • Can we read Money files with iCompta?

    Can we read Money files with iCompta?

    Yes and no. I f you mean reading multiple files as one-single-payload to a process, you can not use this. But the file adapter reads all the files (depending on the number of agents) almost at once, processing each file, or each line in the file as a process instance.

  • Can i delete ALL files in directory ?

    i create a upload test using FileReference & PHP.
    In this scenario user upload files to http server.
    Now how can i delete all files in /files/uploads folder in AS3
    AS3 Code:
    req = new URLRequest();
    req.url = ( stage.loaderInfo.parameters.f )? stage.loaderInfo.parameters.f : "http://www.website.com/test/upload.php";
    uploadFile = new FileReference();
    select_btn.addEventListener( MouseEvent.CLICK, browse );
    uploadFile.addEventListener( Event.COMPLETE, complete_func );
    uploadFile.addEventListener( DataEvent.UPLOAD_COMPLETE_DATA, show_message );
    function browse( e:MouseEvent )
              filefilters = [new FileFilter('Images',"*.jpg;*.png;*.gif")];
              uploadFile.browse( filefilters );
    function complete_func( e:Event )
              trace( 'complete !' );
    function show_message(e:DataEvent)
    if (e.data == 'ok')
              label_txt.text = 'The file has been uploaded.';
    else if ( e.data == 'error')
              label_txt.text = 'The file could not be uploaded.';
    PHP Code:
    <?php
    $uploads_dir = './files/uploads';
    if( $_FILES['Filedata']['error'] == 0 ){
              if( move_uploaded_file( $_FILES['Filedata']['tmp_name'], $uploads_dir.$_FILES['Filedata']['name'] ) ){
                        echo 'ok';
                        exit();
    echo 'error';
    exit();
    ?>

    You need call another PHP file
    <?php
       $directory = './files/uploads';
       getDirectoryList ($directory);  
       //This function find all the files in the directory
       function getDirectoryList ($directory)
         // create an array to hold directory list
         $results = array();
         // create a handler for the directory
         $handler = opendir($directory);
         // open directory and walk through the filenames
         while ($file = readdir($handler)) {
           // if file isn't this directory or its parent, add it to the results
           if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
        //$results[] = $file;
         // Delete Files
        $filename = $file;
      unlink($filename); //this delete a file
         // tidy up: close the handler
         closedir($handler);
    ?>

  • I can't read a file with the ext PDF the sender informed me that the file was reset to PDF.

    I can't read a file with the .ext PDF the sender informed me that the file was reset to PDF. But when I tried to open it the caption box informed me"the file is not in PDF format. I suspect the sender simply changed the file .ext which is why I can't open it! What can I do about it! I am working on an iPad.
    Thanks
    Mr Jim Lapthorn

    If the document is not, in fact, a PDF, then you will need to get your sender to provide a PDF.
    Can you open this document in any other application?
