Test Your Anti-Virus Using Notepad.

This trick is used to check antivirus activity. If you seem that your antivirus software is not working well then you can confirm it by using this trick.

  • Open Notepad and type the following code

X5O! P% @ AP [4 \ PZX54 (P ^) 7CC) 7} $ EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE! $ H + H *
  • Now save it with extension “exe” (like antivirus.exe).see image below
  • If your Anti-Virus is working properly, you will first require to find antivirus.exe file as soon as feasible & will try to remove the file.
  • If you try to remove the file on your Anti-Virus and Anti-Virus are working properly, but you know  I do not try to remove it if you can install a new Anti-Virus.
