SAVScan virus detection utility - check the errors after scanning the HD

Hi There! 

 

I am using Sophos AV on my Linux Mint laptop. 

I am sorry but I am pretty new here.

 

After scanning the internal HD I have the following message: 

1446402 files scanned in 1 hour, 9 minutes and 46 seconds.
2 errors were encountered.
No viruses were discovered.
End of Scan.

 

Cool! Now what I would like to do, without scanning the whole pc again, is extracting the 2 errors were encountered.

So, I can see if I need to take some extra action. 

 

Do you know if there is a way for doing that?

 

The command I used is: sudo /opt/sophos-av/bin/savscan -f -all -dn /

I rather the terminal shows the file it is scanning so I can have an idea if it is working or not. 

removing the option -dn looks me like the laptop is freezing and I do not like it. 

 

And more, I have the feeling that even using the option " / " the AV is not scanning the Windows10 partition. 

Do you know how I can be sure of this? 

 

Thanks in advance!
