About Storage

Storage is a list of backup copies of files that have been deleted or modified during the disinfection process. Backup copy is a file copy created at the first attempt to disinfect or delete this file. Backup copies of files are stored in a special format and do not pose a threat. By default, the Storage is located in /var/opt/kaspersky/kesl/common/objects-backup/. Files in the Storage may contain personal data. Root privileges are required to access files in the Storage.

Sometimes it is not possible to maintain the integrity of files during disinfection. If you partially or completely lose access to important information in a disinfected file after disinfection, you can attempt to restore the disinfected copy of the file to its original directory.
