you are wrong: look at his screenshots again. The problem is in the /var/lib directory, not in the /lib.
Looking again, I agree. The second check was made in /var.
FWIW, AntiVirus is disabled on my RN526x. /var/lib/clamav holds
drwxr-xr-x 1 clamav clamav 102 Oct 29 23:20 . drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 298 Jan 27 06:16 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 48 Oct 31 2017 antivir.ini -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 754688 Oct 31 2017 bytecode.cld -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 42530018 Oct 31 2017 daily.cvd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 307499008 Oct 31 2017 main.cld -rw------- 1 root root 624 Apr 10 2018 mirrors.dat root@NAS:/var/lib/clamav#
So after it is turned off, it should be ok delete any subfolders (or other files) in /var/lib/clamav. I'd leave the five files above in the folder.
Turned off Resilio Sync, trying to remove it but system says "Removing Application" and thats it. Now nas replorting Root Usage 91%.. Really need some help, instructions for accessing the root to delete stuff??

Are you familiar with the linux command line interface?
Have you made a backup of your files?
You'd need to start by enabling ssh access for root as described here: https://kb.netgear.com/30068/ReadyNAS-OS-6-SSH-access-support-and-configuration-guides
Then you'd access then NAS using terminal (mac) , ssh (Windows 10) or putty (older windows). For example, enter ssh root@x.x.x.x in the windows 10 search bar (using the real IP address of the NAS).
Can access via ssh, where to from here?
Still no good, see pic attached. Now reporting 96% root.
