fsav.exe return codes

Hello everyone,

I'm searching for the return codes of the on-demand scanner fsav.exe. (Where using Client Security 12.x Premium.)

I found this here in the community:

https://community.f-secure.com/t5/Business/On-demand-scanner-fsav-exit/ta-p/20254

But it seems, that this list is not complete (or false), because I get return codes like 12 and 23 which are not documented in the tobic above and I can't find a documentation where the return codes are described.

Can someone help me?

Hello,

> I get return codes like 12 and 23 which are not documented

Maybe the reported single error code value is created according to the bizarre logic usually found in Un*x products, where the numerical value is a composite and you have to find out that 23 is 6+8+9?
