Run a Rating Scan
- Click 'Tasks' > 'General Tasks' > 'Scan' > 'Rating Scan'
- A rating scan checks the trust-rating of files on your computer.
- Trust ratings are as follows:
- Trusted - The file is safe to run.
- Malicious - The file is malware. Depending on your settings, CCS will either quarantine the file immediately or present you with disinfection options.
- Unrecognized – Comodo does not currently have a trust rating for the file. Unrecognized files should be run in the container to prevent them potentially attacking your computer. You can simultaneously submit them to Comodo for a trust-rating analysis.
