Sometimes it is not possible to save files integrity during the disinfection process. If a disinfected file contained important information that is partly or completely inaccessible following disinfection, you can attempt to restore the original file from its backup copy.
A backup copy is a copy of a dangerous object that is created in Quarantine when an object is disinfected or deleted by the Kaspersky application.
Quarantine is a special storage area that contains backup copies of files that have been deleted or modified during disinfection. The main function of Quarantine is to let the user restore an original file at any time. Files in Quarantine are saved in a special format and are not dangerous for the computer.
You can restore or remove backup copies of files from Quarantine.

By default, files are stored in Quarantine for 30 days. After 30 days, the files are deleted. You can change the maximum period for storing files in Quarantine or remove the limit entirely.
