I would hate to lose all of my data.Īlright, so event logs do show problems as would be expected for the night that it crashed during the large file transfer.Ĭommand line showed the same errors but was a bit more descriptive. Also let me know if there is any other information that would be useful.
#Freefilesync 6.12 how to
The drives are all plugged into an AMCC 3ware 9500S SATA RAID Controller and set to be JBOD.Īny suggestions on how to fix or debug this would be much, much appreciated. To me it seems like one of my drives is about to die (I have all the same drives and 1 has died previously, but I was able to repair the virtual disk that time around).
#Freefilesync 6.12 drivers
To repair the virtual disk through both the UI and PowerShell does not work and the virtual disk remains in the degraded state.Īs you can see, no storage job is started by the repair-virtualdisk and nothing appears to be happening.īut the accepted solution was to update drivers which i do not believe to be the problem since the virtual disk was fine for an extended amount of time before this occurred. After it came back up, all physical disks and storage space show no problems, but the virtual disk that uses them shows it's status as degraded. During a large file copy something went wrong and the server crashed and rebooted. So, you have to take each scan on a case by case basis to determine if a threat is valid or not, looking at a given AV product's past reputation for reliable results (as I've seen many false positives from AV products in the past).Long story short. There is so much new malware being released every day now, that the AV products just can't be expected to keep up with all of it, and sometimes the "heuristics" engines generate false positives for legit software, and sometimes they can miss malicious software.

Of course, the opposite problem also happens (where malicious software is not being identified with the initial scans, because AV products have not been updated to recognize a given new thread yet, and later scans do identify it as being malicious).
#Freefilesync 6.12 .exe
exe later and find false positives have been removed. you'll find "copy cat" AV products that also start flagging that same download as malicious, even if that's not the case. Unfortunately, once one product flags an installer as suspicious, etc. I see false positives from a variety of other products frequently (especially Trend Micro "House Call" versus some of the other Trend Micro Products), with some of the other products used in scans also "joining the band wagon" and falsely identifying software as having a problem, even though it doesn't. I'd strongly disagree with your assertion that Norton is the only AV product that results in false positives. If you read my response, you'll see that I'm confirming that it does contain an adware installer.
#Freefilesync 6.12 install
You see false positives from a number of AV products on a regular basis.īut, in the case of FreeFilesync, my posts confirmed that the alerts were not false positives, and that it does use an OpenCandy installer (which will usually try to install adware with browser hijackers and more, with the so called "offers" based on your specific OS setup, what's already installed, etc.). Otherwise seeing a positive and then hoping it may be "false" is the wrong way of looking at things. The only false positive that can be somehow ignored is the norton AV reputation "virus" because it flags everything that is not downloaded often without actually even going further with tests.(it is a stupid idea btw) Most Antivirus products just don't flag that kind of adware as malicious, provided the installer gives you a way to "opt out" (which OpenCandy installers give you), probably because the Antivirus vendors are concerned about potential lawsuits.įun, especially since most users probably don't bother to read the "fine print" about what is being included and don't bother to "opt out" (by using a custom installation and unchecking the boxes for the extra crap), ending up with an adware infested machine. That kind of software falls into the PUP (Potentially unwanted program) category, which is a "grey area", despite the problems it can cause. So, sometimes Antivirus products do make mistakes.īut, in this case, the FreeFileSync software does include OpenCandy Adware, which will try to install other software (including browser hijackers) by default, unless you're very careful to "opt out" (use a Custom Installation, uncheck all of the boxes for any extras that it tries to give you by default). in fairness, you do see "false positives" in some cases (where an antivirus product thinks something is malicious when it's not). As far as I am concerned, anything other than 0 (NONE) is not acceptable and is bad. The other post indicating that 4 bad out of 50+ is not bad. Thanks for the details especially that it is possible to install (using the optional method) and uncheck (NOT select) to install the crap.
