McAfee VirusScan Anti-Virus Software
On-demand
Creates a report of infected files and system
scanning only
errors, and saves the data to <filename> in ASCII
text file format.
If <filename> already exists, /REPORT will
overwrite it. To avoid overwriting, use the
/APPEND option with /REPORT: The scanner will
instead add report information to the end of the file,
instead of overwriting it.
You can also use /RPTALL, /RPTCOR, and
/RPTERR to add scanned files, corrupted files,
modified files, and system errors to the report.
You can include the destination drive and directory
(such as D:\VSREPRT\ALL.TXT), but if the
destination is a network drive, you must have
rights to create and delete files on that drive.
McAfee recommends omitting /PAUSE when using
any report option.
On-demand
Include all scanned files in the /REPORT file.
