Hi, in the latest scan results , it shows that it has quarantined a file for trojan presence and list it in the virus protection, quarantined history. I could not see the actions menu to view to remove the items , that is shown as quarantined. In avast, i could just go to the quarantined items and then either restore or remove the threats permanently. This option is missing in windows security , windows defender settings. Quarantined means that it has been imprisoned and would do no harm. ok. But should not be there a provision to manually , physically see the items in quarantined folder and then delete it if i one do not want or restore, if the item is known to be a false positive.
would some one guide me. I see ,severe trojan listed , but i could not see it to remove . But action menu appears for PUP only.

Hi, but quarantined items are shown. But no action menu is present to take further action. I could see the threat shown as reference and no action menu
