Hello.
Archives containing infected files are not an immediate threat to the security of your system. The threat can affect your system only if the infected file is extracted from the archive and executed without having real-time protection enabled. However, it is recommended to use this option to detect and remove any potential threat, even if it is not an immediate threat.
Drag the slider along the scale to exclude from scanning archives that are bigger than a given value in MB (Megabytes).
In your case, all archives bigger than 10 MB will be excluded from scanning, meaning that they will be not scanned.
NOTE:Scanning archived files increases the overall scanning time and requires more system resources.
Regards.
