· D-Central Technologies · ⏱ 2 min read

Last updated:

If your Antminer device is suspected of being infected by a virus, several solutions are available to help clear the virus from the system.

Method 1: SD Card Recovery

SD card recovery is a basic operation skill for current miner operation & maintenance. This method is suitable for early viruses and supports single unit detection and killing. However, it can be difficult to operate.

Below are tutorials for different miner models:

Method 2: ANTMINER Mining Pool Batch Tool Antivirus

This method is a batch operation and is more convenient to operate. It supports multiple models. If some of the 15 and 17 series viruses cannot be detected and killed, operator needs to use the following serial port SD card recovery method.
