A. THE BUG/ISSUE Using edit to alter scans unexpectedly can shorten the no. of files scanned.
Summary: Tricky “edit” scans whit unexpected results.
Can U reproduce the problem & if so how reliably?:Yes it seems to happen always with the latest version of Comodo, version 6.0.264710.2708
If U can, exact steps to reproduce. If not, exactly what U did & what happened:
Enabling scanning optimization in full scan reduces the # of files scanned from 389 398 to 43 040 files
If not obvious, what U expected to happen:Scans not to be altered that much!!! Too much a difference and almost like a quick scan!
If a software compatibility problem have U tried the conflict FAQ?: No
Any software except CIS/OS involved? If so - name, & exact version: No, can’t see any related to the scanning issue
Any other information, eg your guess at the cause, how U tried to fix it etc: I guess there is a bug with the optimization option in advanced settings/av/scan.
Always attach: Diagnostics file, Watch Activity process list, (dump if freeze/crash). If complex: diagnostic report attached, log screen attached.
B. YOUR SETUP (Likely the same for each issue, so you can copy forward)
Exact CIS version & configuration: Comodo Internet Security version 6.0.264710.2708 Proactive Security.
Modules enabled & level. Autosandbox/BBlocker set to untrusted, Firewall, & Real time AV, AV set to block threat, heuristics set to high, Cloud AV on, Firewall set to Safe Mode. Latest def. updates.
Have U made any other changes to the default config? (egs here.): No
Have U updated (without uninstall) from a previous version of CIS: Installed after clean uninstall of Norton 360 with Norton Removal Tool. Everything otherwhise runs fine except for 2 bugs: (1) wit Trusteer Rapport amnd (2) with Real Time protection in Kiosk.
if so, have U tried a a clean reinstall - if not please do?: No, don’t have nothing to do, it’s a version bug!
Have U imported a config from a previous version of CIS: No
if so, have U tried a standard config - if not please do:
