[QUOTE="krs, post: 1853084, member: 67742"] Yes, sorry - I keep doing that. I mean El Capitan As to compatibility - I downloaded and launched VirusBarrier in Mojave which is my current boot drive. Ran it on the boot drive with Mojave on that as the macOS, that is the drive called Seagate Then ran it on the old internal Mini drive called Macintosh HD as if that were an attached drive - VB for that run was still launched in Mojave, I just selected the internal HD as the drive to check, I didn't install or launch VB from the drive with El Capitan on it. I shouldn't even have mentioned El Capitan, that is irrelevant. I'm sorry for creating that confusion. Malwarebytes and DetectX Swift complete the scan without any issues, so I don't think there is anything malicious on these drives that would cause VB to stop scanning. Actually, VB "thinks" it's still scanning when I try to quit VB, but the file count stops incrementing even after I wait for a long time. I have a couple of external backup drives connected to the Mini - I'll try running VB on one of those to see what happens. Again - I will launch VB on Mojave, choose one of the external drives and see where this takes me. BTW - Where do you get VB 10.9? I ended up with VB 1.1.4 after I downloaded that from the App Store. I wonder if I ended up with the wrong version. PS: I just double checked. VB 1.1.4 is supposed to be compatible with macOS 10.10 and up including Catalina - so even if I had run it using El Capitan as the macOS it should have been OK Information [ATTACH=FULL]31730[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
