Batch Virus Scan

Use this to scan many existing archives for virus. Choose Batch Virus Scan from the Tools menu, then follow the steps below:

1. Select the archive files that you want to scan for virus. Click the Add button to choose the archive files to scan. You can repeat this as many times as necessary to add as many archive files as you want. To remove any file from the list, select it, then click the Remove button. Click the Next button to proceed.

2. You will be shown the progress window which shows the current status of this batch operation. If you want to cancel this batch operation, click the Cancel button. Note that canceling a batch operation may take a while since PicoZip will complete its current task before stopping. All files up to the point you click Cancel would have been processed completely.

3. While the batch virus scan is in progress, you may need to manually close the antivirus program after each archive file is scanned. This depends on which antivirus software you use and how it was configured.

4. Once the batch operation is completed, you will be shown the results screen. You can click on the Copy to Clipboard button to copy the results to Windows clipboard, or click the Save to File button to save the results to a text file. Click the Close button to exit.

If you only want to scan a single archive for virus, read this instead.
