Hello,

It would be really a Good idea if could Add a seperate Button "Purge All Quarantine Files" & "Clear Infected Status" & "Purge all Logs" on the SEPM Home Screen on in the Logs Screen.

Since it becomes very tidious job for a Administrator to Delete the Quarantine Files or Risk Logs in case if there are around 50000+ Quarantine files OR there are huge Log int he SEPM.

Good Idea

As long as there is a confirmation box that asks if you are really sure to prevent accidental (and permanent) loss of data.

Not getting threats on your

Not getting threats on your machine would also be a good idea. Other than the issue with the tmp files I would hope no customer would ever have that many actual threats in quarantine.

I agree, this is a good idea for both the SEPM and when you are on a client PC.

thanks!

With SEP12, Still Infected

With SEP12, Still Infected status is accurate so this should be less of an issue.
