BitDefender 2010 has a new feature called SmartScan, which decreases the duration of the scan by adding clean files to a cache so that they will be skipped at the next scan if the files have not been accessed or modified in any way. If a file that is already present in the cache is accessed, then it will be removed from the cache.
I have some queries about Bitdefender Skipped Items
1) Is this "Cache" created by Bitdefender is different for the same files (e.g C:\Windows) scanned through "Deep System Scan" ' and "Contextual Menu Scan"?
2) What type of files are added to skipped items other than the criteria "Clean"?
3) Does this Bitdefender cache will be cleared after restarting the PC?
4) If I run "Deep System Scan" first then "Context Menu Scan" of Same Drives, the time span of "Context Menu Scan", will the time span of Scan be lower?
5) What is the path of this Bitdefender Cache?
6) Does it occupy space on harddisk?
Hoping detailed reply
Regards
