It seems to me that this was a very rare situation! As you stated, TSM would not have changed the extension on the file from .exe to .avb, that was the anti-virus software or virus itself. Since this

That's the problem, it does not show any inactive versions. The only version, inactive or otherwise, are the renamed versions. This is why I believe that tivoli is not recognizing a difference betwee
Agreed, my concern is why the retain only did not kick in at the time the files was renamed to .avb. Is tsm really not recognizing a change in the file even though its' type changed? I have displayed
