    Inconsistency results of MRT scanning


    Hi All,


    I ran MRT (Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool) from \Windows\System32 directly and performed a full scan.

    I left it working for many days. Before finishing the scan I took a screenshot:


    Inconsistency results of MRT scanning 3b49fdbb-3c05-4e54-b284-7416e4c0942c?upload=true.png


    As you can see at that point there were 29 files infected.


    I left it finishing the scan and took another screenshot:

    At this point I didn't understand it. Did it find around 30 files infected or not?


    Thanks


    The following is the log from the MRT.log file:

    MRT scanning tool

    Hello

    I just have some questions. What would happen if I delete the MRT tool and just keep Windows Defender. Also, for some reason I have stopped receiving MRT updates from Microsoft, I'm only getting Windows Defender definitions. Is that normal? Why did the MRT
    updates stop coming? Also, the MRT found in the Windows 32 folder is extremely huge, what is the normal size for Windows 10 64-bit machines.

    During the installation process to Windows 10 (or the recent upgrade) does Windows Firewall always on in the background? When does the Firewall exactly turn on?

    scanned documents

    Hello,

    By default, scans are saved in a Scans folder inside the Pictures. Here are the steps on how to get there:

    • Press Windows and type pictures
    • Click Pictures and double-click the Scans folder.

    Furthermore, we suggest that you repair your Word application by following the steps on this

    link    .

    Let us know how that turned out for you.
