The action Trend Micro Security performs depends on the scan type that detected the security risk. For example, when Trend Micro Security detects a security risk during Manual Scan (scan type), it cleans (action) the infected file.
Scan actions are configured by the Trend Micro Security server's administrator.
Clean: Removes the security risk from the infected file before allowing you to access the file. If the file is uncleanable, Trend Micro Security performs a second action, which can be one of the following actions: Quarantine, Delete, and Pass.
Delete: Removes the infected file permanently from the computer.
Pass: Trend Micro Security performs no action on the infected file but records the detected security risk in the logs. The file stays where it is located.
Quarantine: Renames and then moves an infected file to the quarantine directory on your computer. Quarantined files display on the Quarantined Files screen on the console. To access the Quarantined Files screen, click the Trend Micro Security icon on your computer's menu bar, select Open Trend Micro Security, click Logs, and then click View Quarantined Files.
