can also find useful information by searching the Internet.
● Scan files. You can set Bitdefender to scan all types of files or applications
(program files) only. Scanning all files provides best protection, while scanning
applications only can be used to perform a quicker scan.
Applications (or program files) are far more vulnerable to malware attacks than
other types of files. This category includes the following file extensions: 386;
a6p; ac; accda; accdb; accdc; accde; accdp; accdr; accdt;

● Scan options for archives. Archives containing infected files are not an
immediate threat to the security of your system. The malware can affect your
system only if the infected file is extracted from the archive and executed without
having real-time protection enabled. However, it is recommended to use this
option in order to detect and remove any potential threat, even if it is not an
immediate threat.
Note
Scanning archived files increases the overall scanning time and requires more
system resources.
● Scan boot sectors. You can set Bitdefender to scan the boot sectors of your
hard disk. This sector of the hard disk contains the necessary computer code to
start the boot process. When a virus infects the boot sector, the drive may become
inaccessible and you may not be able to start your system and access your data.
● Scan memory. Select this option to scan programs running in your system's
memory.
