[ ] Want to answer more questions in the Technology category? Maybe give some free advice about: Computers?
you mean if you delete viruses?u can put them in quarantine so they don't spread like cloud all over your pc you cant hold it here until deleted ]
It's where you put everyone with a sertain disease in one place so it doesnt spread. Its usually something lifethreatening, because people don't want a deadly disease to spread ]
When you get a virus, your virus program will put it into quarantine. It means that the file is still on your computer but it's in...like a bubble. It can't do anything to your computer while it's in quarantine. The reason virus scanners do this is to make sure that they don't delete important files off of your computer automatically. It lets you look at the file to make sure that it's not something you want on there. What you need to do when something is in quarantine is to delete it off of your computer from the quarantine. Even though it can't harm your computer there's no reason to keep it on your computer. Maybe if you add what kind of virus program you have someone can give you a more specific answer. I hope I helped and good luck! ]
Quarantine can mean a few different things. One definition is to like block off something, or depart from something. Another definition is to hold back, or delay. ]
