Yes and no. See "Test Options" in the AVG Help file.

Nothing. You can go back and access any infected files by reviewing specific test results:

AVG Test Center > Test Results Smile

Open up the Test Center, from the test menu, select Complete Test Settings and make sure 'Automatically heal Infected Files' is checked. Do the same for the 'Selected Areas Test'.

That's weird it was already checked off. Incase were on the wrong page what i was asking is when avg detects a virus without scanning can i have it heal them automatically. Or maybe im just confused and when avg detects viruses it's just scanning without me knowing that it is.

Either way i suppose avg will heal them after time runs out because i apparently already had that checked.
