Main Window.

List
Contains functions for easier navigation within the program and various other functions like finding information online.

Detail
Influences information displayed in other sections of Main Window and thus makes the use of the program simple. In
"Basic" mode you have access to information used to find solutions for common problems in your system. In the
"Medium" mode the program displays less used details while in the "Full" mode ESET SysInspector displays all the
information needed to solve very specific problems.
Item filtering
Item filtering is best used to find suspicious files or registry entries in your system. By adjusting the slider you can filter
items by their Risk Level. If the slider is set to the utmost left (Risk Level 1) then all items are displayed. By moving the
slider to the right the program filters out all items less risky than current Risk Level and display only items which are
more suspicious than the displayed level. With the slider on the utmost right the program displays only known harmful
items.
All items belonging in the risk range 6 to 9 can pose security risk. If you are not using some of the security solutions
from ESET, we recommend you to scan your system with
ESET Online Scanner
after the program has found any such
item. ESET Online Scanner is a free service.
NOTE:
The Risk level of an item can be quickly determined by comparing the color of the item with the color on the Risk
Level slider.
Search
Search can be used to quickly find a specific item by its name or part of its name. The results of the search request are
displayed in the Description Window.
Return
By clicking the back or forward arrow you may return to previously displayed information in the Description Window.
You may use backspace and space keys instead of clicking back and forward respectively
Status section
Displays the current node in Navigation Window.
Important:
Items highlighted in red are unknown, that’s why the program marks them as potentially dangerous. If an
item is in red, it does not automatically mean that you can delete the file. Before deleting, please make sure that files are
really dangerous or unnecessary.
