Hi,
I am having the exact same issue described by previous posters. It is now June 29, 2017 and I am running version 17.5.3021. I have files that got quarantied and when I attempt to restore them nothing happens. Have there been any developments in this open issue? Is there a workaround or a new version to allow us to restore the files and continue working or do we need to move away from AVG to accomplish this?
Thank you.
Same problem here.
The file is a .exe which was residing on a 4TB storage hdd which has numbers in its name and is linked as D:
Idk if it helps but it's the only thing I can think about that could be different in my case from the dozens of others.
Using v17.1.3006 (yes, I believe it's not the latest, but I also just found out that avg stopped updating and that it refuses to do so when I try to tell it to, so … one problem at a time).

Hello Gert,
We are sorry for the confusion, we requested the screenshot because each and every customer doesn't have the same files quarantined, so we need to check what are the files that are quarantined, so that we can analyze and fix it. However you can try an option by adding the file location to exceptions and restore the file from Quarantine. Please click on the link to show how to add exceptions : http://support.avg.com/SupportArticleView?urlname=How-to-make-exclusions-from-all-scans-and-shields
Once you add the file path to exception, please Restore the file from Quarantine. Hope this helps.
Please, feel free to let us know if you require any further assistance. Thank you.

AVG AV Free: Version 17.3.3011
Three items have been quarantined, I wish to recover them. From the quarantine menu, I attempt to select the three items, then proceed to restore them but they will not remained selected. If i attempt to use the "Select All Viruses" they will not remain selected either.
Is the recover/extract features ones that I cannot use until I have purchased your application? Or can you provide a solution for extracting these files.

If you scroll up this page you will see the screen shots posted already regarding this problem and if you read the comments as well you will notice that there is a bug in your software preventing files to be restored from quarantine. The problem is not about files that was incorrectly quarantined but it is also not possible to restore them. The files also does not appear in the folder C:\ProgramData\AVG\Antivirus\Chest\ Only Index.xml appears in this folder and not the actual quarantined files. Please investigate before posting a reply.
You need to deal with this pronto as i can't use my crypto currency wallets!. The version i have is the free 1 months trial, so it had better be fixed soon !.
I have the same issue with 259 jQuery and jqGrid files, the quarantining of which is causing errors in my programmes. Why are these all of a sudden withthe latest version of AVG considered viruses when they have been fine for the past 4 years? How do I restore them and ensure this does not happen again without having to type our 259 full path/file details into exceptions?
I have this issue as well.
One of my programmes is no longer working as one of the files has been put into quarantine.
But I cannot restore the file. Selecting it and pressing restore does NOTHING.
This is a serious issues, as I cannot use the programme!
Hello,
You can recover the Quarantined files by following the instructions given below:
1. Open the AVG Antivirus free program from the Zen window.
2. Click on the "Menu" which is at the top right in the AVG Antivirus free window and select "Quarantine."
3. You will find an option to recover the files by clicking on the icon at the bottom right on the window.
Thank you.
