Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a virus-infected application processing method. The method comprises: obtaining identification information associated with a virus-infected application; cleaning the virus-infected application; sending the identification information to a recommended application search module; receiving recommendation information from the recommended application search module, the recommendation information comprising introduction to one or more applications relevant to the virus-infected application; and displaying the recommendation information. According to the virus-infected application processing method, relevant applications are recommended to a user at the same time as the virus-infected application is cleaned, thereby allowing the user to easily install a same but virus-free application or a similar substitute application. The entire operational process is simple and convenient, and can effectively make up for the functional loss due to the cleaning of the virus-infected application.
