Is there really no more quarantine manager in the new version?

I recently upgraded my home mac to the new version of Sophos AV with the web based management console and when I ran a scan it picked up a few files that are expected false positives.   There appears to no longer be a quarantine manager and from what I can find in other posts seem to imply that there is no quarantine anymore, the product just permanently deletes the file - is this correct?    If so - can I upgrade my home computer to a business version to get the quarantine function back or is this gone from all of Sophos mac AV products?

 

I really like Sophos for my Macs but if there is no more quarantine then I can't use a product that just deletes files all willy-nilly.   If the quarantine really is gone then this is going to be a royal pain because it got the files on the local backup disk too and now I have to wait to restore these files until I can go pickup my offsite drive.     Thanks for any information you can provide!

  • Just a comment more than any type of answer — there's at least a few reasons why someone would not want the file disinfected or especially moved\deleted.  This should, at the very least, be a knob for the user to set as desired but to summarily just delete the file is the worst design choice second only to providing no resolution at all.
