Hi,

I use file scanner very often and I have a lot of scans.

I want to ask how much last scans do I have to leave to don't loose my results and have a result to compare next time?

Second question: how much space in database take one scans. How You recommends how much scans leav in database?

Regards

Hello,

well, it make sense to keep only the latest scans, there's no point in keeping data several months old.
If you review them every time and mark as safe all the changed files, you can easily keep the last 10-15 scans.

Regarding the size in the database, it depends if you enabled to save the file diff and how many files are changed in every scan. I can say that it you'll easily get 4-5Mb for each scan, even more.
