How to delete quarantined items in NIS 2013

[tas3986]

I've read the many posts on this question. There never seems to be a clear answer.  Delete the history ... Delete the qbackup directory.... Some say the file is deleted from your system, yet still exists for recovery purposes .... Some say to remove NIS program from your system, but others say that these things are not removed.  How Do I Delete/REMOVE from my system all traces of the quarantined items. 

 

I've got over 400 .qbi files on my system in many qbackup directories spanning many years.  Yet, my history file shows 7 items. What do I have to do to eliminate all traces of these things from my system?  Yes even the encrypted, recoverable "non-files" that exist on my system.

 

Any I also agree with everyone else.  There needs to be a delete option in the quarantine to accomplish this task. And then, what about previous files from previous versions of the Norton Products.

Hi tas3986,

 

Probably not much help for your situation and not an answer to your question - but here is some info from a thread dealing with the qbackup which I am not sure you have or have not seen.

 

Also, here is how to delete from your history.  Select the Item you wan to delete, then clickon More Details.  From there select Options and finally remove from history.  I haven't used it, but I would guess it only removes it from history.

 

Not sure this helps any - but your suggestion to add a dleet option canbe posted on the Product Suggestions Board so Norton will see it.
