I use Bitdefender Total Security. Not sure how to configure it with FDM but would love to see the integration and a tutorial.

Re: FDM6: Assign a virus scanner to scan each downloaded file

To use Windows cmd or PowerShell commands for Kaspersky Security Cloud 21.2 do the following:
Nest the command line in the Kaspersky Security Cloud program file, typically located:

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files (x86)\Kaspersky Lab\Kaspersky Security Cloud 21.2
Use the following command:

Code: Select all

.\avp.com SCAN "%path%"

So I assumed to setup Kaspersky Security Cloud 21.2 the following inputs would be:
Select Antivirus: Configure Manually
Path: C:/Program Files (x86)/Kaspersky Lab/Kaspersky Security Cloud 21.2/avp.com
Arguments: SCAN "%path%"

However, whenever I select the "Perform Virus Check" from the application context menu, I get the notice "There is no antivirus specified in the settings". Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hello,

I use Trend Micro 2020 Maximum Security. It'll be great if you support this.

Thanks.

Thanks for fixing the feature! It seems that Kaspersky Cloud Security will work properly with FDM when configured.

A known anti-virus I would like to be supported is ESET Internet Security. As far as I know its a good antivirus offering plenty of features. Please consider adding it.

Norton
C:/Program Files/Norton Security/Engine/22.21.1.151/navw32.exe (replace '22.21.1.15' with your version number, browse to folder to ensure it is correct)

In the 'Arguments' field ensure there is a space after %path% variable otherwise the scan will not run.

Hi!

I´m looking forward to see G-Data Antivirus in FDM! I´m using G-Data Total Security. The path to the sirusscanner in my case is:

C:\Program Files (x86)\G DATA\TotalSecurity\AVK

The command line would be something like:

avkcmd /scan:path\file.name

Alex wrote:Hello,

We're planning to add support of this feature in the upcoming release of FDM6.

Generally, the user will have to specify antivirus manually. For this, he will need to specify path to the antivirus binary file, which supports command line scan, and also specify the command line arguments.

However, FDM6 will also support some "known" antiviruses, so the user will not have to setup all the things, but just choose it from the list instead. Currently, FDM6 supports only these two: Windows Defender and Avast! Antivirus.

We would like to ask our users to tell us about yours favorite antiviruses you would like to use with FDM and write us their parameters: path to the binary and command line args.

Malwarebytes is what I use

I´m using Kaspersky on Windows, so the path and parameters should be slightly different to Linux.
The path should be set to (Program Files (x86)) and point to avp.exe under path.
The arguments set to: "scan %path% -i3 -fa -iSwift=on"

So this worked fine for me 8)

The parameters:
-i3 is used for – Disinfect infected objects, delete them if they cannot be disinfected; delete containers completely if infected files inside them cannot be deleted.
-fa is used for – Scan all files (instead of only infectables).
-iSwift=on - use iSwift technology (on/off) - special for NTFS

The complete reference should be found here (is for mac and older, but works fine with avp.exe):
https://support.kaspersky.com/KIS4Mac/1 ... /26820.htm

Hope you enjoy and thx for that feature :D

The setup for Kaspersky worked fine for me, on Windows 7. I used this path: "C:/Program Files (x86)/Kaspersky Lab/Kaspersky Total Security 21.2/avp.exe".
