Antivirus working or not.Test it!
There are a lot of ways to test if antivirus is working or not. I am going to help you with one of the process which can determine for your antivirus. You just have to follow the below steps provided:
You can do this by EICAR Test which is a short form for European Institute of Computer Antivirus Research. All you have to do is open the notepad from where it is installed then paste the code in the notepad.
X5 O !P%@ AP[ 4 PZ X 5 4( P^ )7C C)7 }$ EIC AR- ST A ND A RD-AN TIV IRUS-T EST-FI LE!$H+ H*
You should provide no blank spaces between the code. Then save the file by the name of see. exe. This will check that your antivirus is working or not. If it’s not working then no warning will be shown and if its working a warning will be shown. Hence, you can check if your antivirus is working or not.
