    Will I accidentally remove program files by removing all unhealed infections?
    I ran an AVG antivirus scan on my laptop. Scan result showed 14 infections, an example of which is this,
    "C:\WINDOWS\system32\GUN08.EXE";"Trojan horse Generic18.BDOM";"Infected"
    My question is if I select the option,"remove all unhealed infections", am I at risk of deleting program files?
