How to check the phone for viruses through a computer

Viruses are a constant and extremely serious problem for all users of computers, smartphones and other devices based on various operating systems. Experts who regularly analyze the situation associated with viral attacks, note that every day the viruses are becoming everything perfectly, and companies developed by anti-virus software have to make colossal efforts to ensure complete security for users.

Many users are interested in how to check the phone to viruses, while using the smartphone itself, but a personal computer. The fact is that computer antiviruses are noticeably more powerful and more efficient than mobile. Many users also remember that one of the most popular antiviruses for smartphones turned out to be "duck", and all scans were only ordinary animation.

Immediately it is worth saying that checking the smartphone to viruses through a computer is an extremely simple process that even beginners, especially unlike the principles of the technique. The easiest way is to scan the smartphone files through the antivirus program installed on the PC.

First of all, it is worth keeping in mind that a USB cable will be required to scan the smartphone from the computer. Next, you need to go to the settings of the mobile device and check the box near the UBS debug option, or select the "Removable Media" mode when connected to a computer. Accordingly, you need to do so that when connecting to a PC, the computer has access to the memory of the smartphone. Next, simply connect the smartphone to the computer by means of the above cable. If everything is done correctly, then you can detect 1 or 2 removable disks on the PC (if the smartphone is equipped with a memory card, then there will be 2). Next, you can go to "My Computer" and select the disk of interest. Click on it right mouse button and select "Scan Disk". This option is available for most modern antiviruses. Depending on how many files on the desired disk, the program will scan for some time. The same manipulation should be done for another disk. At the same time, the computer can find suspicious files that may be viruses. Interestingly, the anti-virus software can be wrong, and the user will error to delete important files. In such a situation, you need to be as attentive as possible.

It is worth paying attention to the fact that in its standard state the smartphone does not allow access to system files, so often ordinary antiviruses can be useless. At the same time there are a lot of ways to obtain the superuser's rights, after which it is possible to manage all system files without any problems.

I would also like to say about some other programs related to antivirus software. For example, the software called Android Commander is a comprehensive solution for smartphone owners. Here you can more deeply analyze the available files, and the program allows you to completely and without a trace to delete all the necessary files, including the program. Accordingly, if there are some suspicions associated with viruses on the smartphone, you can cleanst all the necessary fragments of the system and be confident in complete safety. At the same time, it is worth it to be careful, so make a mistake with such opportunities is extremely easy.

Despite the fact that many users are categorically against the use of antiviruses on mobile devices (in their opinion, it is useless programs that only select a lot of RAM, while completely without creating problems for viruses), it makes sense to pay attention to a couple of popular developments . Of course, they do not guarantee that viruses will not appear on the smartphone, but the minimum level of security will still be provided.
