When I run a manual full system scan, it does so with apparent ease.ģ. Rapid reboot/rapid restart not on this computerĢ. Just in case you are wondering - The reason I full scan only every 30 days is because I have come to trust the Quick Scan and that is usually done multiple times a day and after definition updates.ġ. Of course when testing you could use shorter time frames - such as hours in lieu of days in the Specific Time Interval. An play with your Idle time and other settings to find something that meets your needs. You can change the frequency to Run at a Specific time interval (I use this option set for 30 days).
You can change your Windows Power Management settings to prevent Sleep/Hibernation which would tell you if the scheduled scan will work with Idle Tme selected. Now if that works, then you have several options as I see it. sure it makes no sense - but it will tell you if in fact it can be scheduled (you can always cancel it once it starts). I believe dick and dave are on the correct path - I would suggest you might change the setting to Daily and select a time that your system will be 'awake' and also uncheck only at Idle Time.
