Hi Libeesh,

We're glad to help you with the info. Our expertise are limited to AVG.
If you'd like to check if a file is infected or not, you can install AVG free protection & run a scan.
The scan will notify you if there are any threats/infections found on your computer.
Alternately,  you'll be able to analyze a file, url in Virus Total page.
If you're considered about the C++ coding, we're afraid as we're uncertain about it.
Thank you for your understanding in advance!

Hello,

Please let me know how the command line code notify if there are any threats/infections found on a file?

I know the method to do command line scan ["C:\Program Files\AVG\Antivirus\ashCmd.exe"  "<filepath>"]. Is there any return value for this command line?

Thanks,
Libeesh

Hi,

I am writing a program in C++ to check whether a file is virus infected or not. I could successfully scan a file using 'ashCmd.exe' (using command line). 

Example: "C:\Program Files\AVG\Antivirus\ashCmd.exe"  "<filepath>".

But I don't know how to check whether the file is virus infected or not. Please let know how to do this?

Thanks,
Libeesh
