how to veiw the result of last clamscan scan?

**Abhijit Navale** · January 2nd, 2011

I scanned pen drive using clamscan and I closed the terminal after scanning without reading the result. Now one of my folder is missing in pen drive. I wanted to know if clamav deleted it. So I want to view the last scan result.

Have you checked /var/log/clamav?

In /var/log/clamav there are two files.
freshclam.log and freshclam.log.1
and both dont have anything of that 'scanning' result.
both have something about updating clamav database.

there is no scan results unless you specify the output to a file while running clamscan in command line.

type 'clamscan --help' for options
