Configuration :: File extensions

Scanner

The list of this window displays all file extensions that are included in a scan if the option Use file extension list is enabled or a new profile is created in which the file filter is adapted.

Note
Please do not enter any extensions of non-executable files as this may compromise the Avira AntiVir Premium scan service.

This list can be edited as follows:

Insert

Another window opens in which you can enter a new file extension.

Delete

Deletes the highlighted entry from the list.

Default

This button resets the list to the Avira AntiVir Premium default settings. This list of default extensions can be amended if, for example, new virus types appear.

Note
Amendments to the list and custom entries are lost when default settings are reset.
