Answer: Quarentine the files

Explanation:

Hi, when an possible infected file is in quarantine, it means that is deleted from its original location and instead is putted in other location where it cannot longer affect the system. If there was a virus in the file, it is no harmless.

You can decide later if you want to delete it permanently or if not.
