Raspberry Pi Antivirus is used to check for viruses and other harmful software on your raspberry pi. Your raspberry pi has no built in Antivirus, so you need to install one. To install, open the terminal and type this.

Sudo apt install clamav

Once it is done, you will notice that there is no new app or anything that is installed to the application menu. To use the antivirus, open the terminal once again and enter this into the command line.

When you press enter, it will pause for a couple of minutes. Do not worry, for this is when it takes the time to scan through everything to see if there is any viruses. after it is done, it will show you all of your files and if they are okay or not. Once it has run through them all, it will give you a scan summary which shows what is found.

To uninstall, just type this into the terminal command line.

sudo apt remove clamav
