Hi,

How can I get rid of old MBSA reports/Scans.

I can not find a delete option. I am currently using MSBA 2.1

Thx

They are all in \Documents and Settings\Administrator\Security Scans - or
(User) or (All Users) etc in place of \Administrator as required.

Hi,

Their is no such folder in All Users or as Administrator.

Its seems they have changed the location.


I found something similar to what you say at
http://windowsitpro.com/article/articleid/45266/mbsa-introduction.html

It seems you are referring to some old MSBA version.


Do you have any more ideas.

Thanks
