ClamXAV v3.9.2 (11297) - What’s new?
Here’s a run-down of what’s in the works for ClamXAV v3.9.2

- Improve accuracy of DB update scheduler
- Improve accuracy of file counter
- Fix issue where DB update may be delayed if Xenia connection drops and re-establishes itself
- Malware detection alert emails (business licences only) are now batched to send after a scan completes rather than immediately after each detected file.
- Fix Dutch localisation (many thanks to Richard Kwakkel)

Please remember to report ANY issues with this build to support@clamxav.com
How to revert to the non-beta version
Version 3.9.2 introduces a slight change to the reports database format, which means you will not be able to view old entries in ClamXAV’s Reports window, nor will you be able to log any new events if you revert to a previous version.
To regain logging/reporting functionality after downgrading to a previous version, you will need to remove the database file at /Library/Application Support/ClamXAV/Logs/ClamXAV-logs.cxav after uninstalling.
- Uninstall ClamXAV using the partial uninstaller
- Delete the file at
/Library/Application Support/ClamXAV/Logs/ClamXAV-logs.cxav(optional) - Re-install ClamXAV using the main installer pkg
