Windows 7 System Volume Information Directory

Hi cstocci
 
As to whether WSA scan the System Volume Information (SVI) directory automatically is one question & that probably needs an answer from the Webroot professional; @ would you be able to assist on this one?
 
In terms of scanning on any hard drive WSA will only automatically scan the System drive, i.e., where the OS is installed. The scanning of other hard drives would need to be done manually.
 
There should be no need to start in Safe Mode.
 
It is used by the System Restore and Indexing Services. If you do not use either, you can delete the folder, but why would you want to? Is it causing problems? Rather than delete it I would just turn the services off which should top it being used.
 
But personally, I would not touch the SVI directory.
