Have you ever thought what antivirus does after detecting a harmful file? Where does that diagnosed infected file go? No, we actually don't give proper thought to this process. When Avast finds a harmful file, it actually moves to Virus Chest. This is a depository of infected or suspicious files away from the entire operating system so that they won't damage to other files or the system. No outside process, virus or software application is accessible when files are in Virus Chest. Also the files cannot be run from inside the antivirus folder. It means there is no harm in storing the files in the chest.
It is a secured place for saving the harmful infected files, separating them from the operating system. If you try to access a file in the antivirus folder by double-clicking, you can only view the file properties.

How to open Virus Chest?
Method 1:
a. In the system tray available at the bottom right hand corner of your system, right click on Avast's orange icon for opening the Virus Chest.
b. From the menu select Virus Chest option.
Method 2:
Through User Interface:
The other method of opening the user interface is by selecting Open Avast user interface after either right clicking on Avast icon again or double click on the desktop icon.
From the menu available on the left side, choose Protection> Antivirus. For opening the antivirus folder window select Virus Chest button placed at the bottom of the screen.
When Avast detects any suspicious or infected file, the first thing it does is repairing. But there are some files which can't be repaired so what Avast does is- it moves those files to Virus Chest. In case if file denies moving, then it will be removed automatically from the computer system.
