If your computer is not connected to the Internet, this does not mean that you can leave it unprotected. Antivirus must be present on it in the same mandatory manner as the operating system. In addition, this antivirus needs to be updated regularly.
Instructions
Step 1
Download the anti-virus signature databases on the Internet on another computer. Copy them to a USB stick. Then copy them to the computer on which you want to update the virus databases. Open your antivirus. Go to the update menu. Specify the path to the copied databases. If they are zipped, be sure to unpack them. Confirm the changes after the update is complete. Reboot your computer.
Step 2
Buy a licensed antivirus disk to update virus databases without the Internet. It is not necessary to reinstall the antivirus, although when you buy a fresh disc, you get the latest version of the program, which takes into account and fixes all the shortcomings of its predecessors. Start the antivirus disk. An autorun window will appear.
Step 3
Select the action: "Update anti-virus signature databases". The installation program will automatically recognize the installed antivirus and will confirm the possibility or impossibility of updating it. If the update is possible, wait until the installation of the anti-virus databases is complete. Close your antivirus and restart your computer.
Step 4
If the update is not possible, uninstall the old version of the antivirus and install the new one, which there is no need to update at the moment.
Step 5
Ask for help from specialists to update the anti-virus databases without the Internet. With this request, you can contact the store from which you purchased your computer or an authorized dealer of antivirus software. A specialist will come to your home and update your antivirus without any problems.
Step 6
But keep in mind that you will have to pay for both its services and the cost of anti-virus databases. In addition, agree on such a service in advance, since it is advisable to update the antivirus two weeks before the expiration date of the current databases, and, of course, in extreme cases, before the day of their expiration.
