Q. A lot of disk space is occupied by eScan “FBackUp” folder in my Local Drive. What is the use and how can we stop this ? A. FBackUp is a folder created by eScan, which is used to take auto-backup of clean files having extensions *.EXE, *.DLL, *.OCX, *.SYS, *.DRV, and *.CPL after scanning, these files are stored in an encrypted format.
The eScan Auto-backup will first check for the minimum available space limit defined for a hard disk drive. If the minimum define space is available then only the Auto-backup will function, if not it will stop without notifying. Below is the step from which one can define the space limit required for Auto Backup to work:- First, Install the latest eScan hotfix. Click here to download the eScan Hotfix
Note: In above case when the hard disk drive has less than 500MB of free space, the Auto-Backup will stop.
