Scan stuck on dslocal-backup.xar. Yes I am only scanning my hard drive and no Time Machine.

TonyPolitano

Happened both on Yosemite and again last night on El Capitan.  Scanning Hard Drive Only (about 2.1M files).  Finds a file dslocal-backup.xar and hangs (8 hours + on both Yosemite and El Capitan).  File is not large 896K and in directory /private/var/db/.  If I exclude this directory, there is a bunch of stuff that I would miss.  Suggestions?

    When updating new OS X 10.11 release El Capitan and then scan my hard drive, Sophos gets stuck on file
    dslocal-backup.xar

    Have waited +8H but still stuck and scan won't proceed. Have done this 3 times now, and same problem happens.

    I'm running Sophos Home edition 9.4

    Any suggestions of how to solve this issue?
