In OSX, is it OK to delete fonts that keep hanging up Bitdefender Virus Scanner?
I have 10.15.7 (Catalina) on my 12 year old iMac. (Need to get new iMac since mine doesn't have capacity to upgrade to MOS 11+.....)
Have been using Bitdefender Virus Scanner (free version) religiously for over a decade. Normally it's been fine at occasionally finding things and either deleting or quarantining them. But lately, it will sit for hours and hours on just one particular font (always stuck on it, so it never finishes the scan even after, last night, 12+ hours!) which is really annoying.
Am thinking of deleting the troubling fonts one at a time when they hang up the virus-scan. (Then I can do COMPLETE scannings again.) Is that safe for me to do, delete problem fonts (maybe with attached malware to them) without corrupting anything?
Here are some examples of fonts that most recently are tying it up (per Bitdefender scan window):
/Library/Fonts/Bodoni Ornaments ITC TT
/Library/Fonts/Santa Fe LET Fonts
Also, if it IS safe for me to delete them, what is the safest way for me to completely delete a given font that's hanging the scanning up?
Thank you for any enlightenment.
