Hey! I like using Clamtk for my Linux builds, but there is one thing that annoys me every time I am using clamtk. that thing is lack of option to scan the ENTIRE system from A to Z (including hidden files). I hope this option will be avaible soon...

Hi @FRANEKbinbanek ,

You can do this. You have to enable recursive scanning and the scan hidden files options in Settings, and then do a directory scan. In the directory scan, you'll have to look for the "computer" option or navigate to the "/" directory.

Note that I don't really recommend this. I think you should use a rootkit scanner for things like that (e.g., rkhunter).

respectfully, Dave M
