Rename
Reference: Configuration options
Realtime Protection renames the file. Direct access to these files (e.g. with doubleclick)
is therefore no longer possible. The file can be repaired at a later time and
renamed again.
Quarantine
Realtime Protection moves the file to Quarantine. The file can be recovered from
Quarantine manager if it has an informative value or - if necessary - sent to the Avira
Malware Research Center. Depending on the file, further options are available in the
Quarantine manager.
Delete
The file will be deleted. This process is much faster than Overwrite and delete (see
below).
Ignore
Access to the file is permitted and the file is ignored.
Overwrite and delete
Realtime Protection overwrites the file with a default pattern before deleting it. It
cannot be restored.
Warning
If Realtime Protection is set to Scan when writing, the affected file is not
written.
Default
This button allows you to select an action that is activated in the dialog box by default
when a virus is detected. Select the action that should be activated by default and click
on the "Default" button.
Note
The action Repair cannot be selected as the default action.

Automatic
If this option is enabled, no dialog box in case of a virus detection appears. Realtime
Protection reacts according to the settings you predefine in this section as primary and
secondary action.
Copy file to quarantine before action
If this option is enabled, the Realtime Protection creates a backup copy before
carrying out the requested primary or secondary action. The backup copy is saved in
quarantine. It can be restored via the Quarantine manager if it is of informative value.
