Most error reports involve files that cannot be completely scanned, either because the user lacks read permission or the file exceeds one of the limits imposed by a configuration parameter.

It does seem odd that the numbers would change between scans by that amount.

Logs can be made to display errors, but I’m not on my computer right now, so can’t say off-hand what needs to be changed in order to display them.
