Files scanned 3

If I scan a simply word or pdf document I get "files scanned 3"

How come 3 when is a single word document file?

I have seen this with other AVs as well. I noticed it when I run a scan of a word file or pdf over a usb.

Hi @claudiubotezatu

May I ask about the file's origin? Was it downloaded from external sources, or was it created locally on your system?

Regarding our investigation, when a file is fetched from the network, it usually consists of a main file and an extension. In the New Technology File System (NTFS) employed by Microsoft Windows for file management, this pairing is recognized as a single file. However, within the context of Trend Micro, it may be perceived as multiple distinct files.

Thanks!
