How does Bitdefender handle archived files?
I was wondering how Bitdefender handles archived files (7z, rar, zip, etc.). When performing a deep scan, does Bitdefender extract these files to scan?
I got a threat detection inside a 7z file when performing a deep scan using Bitdefender. When the threat is inside the 7z file, it is inert. However, for Bitdefender to properly scan it, it would have to be extracted, right? Hence, the extracted (temporary) file would have the potential to infect the computer, right? How does Bitdefender handle it?
