Selected file types
- you can specify that you want to scan only files that
are possibly infectable (
files that cannot get infected will not be scanned, for
instance some plain text files, or some other non-executable files
), including
media files (
video, audio files - if you leave this box unchecked, it will reduce
the scanning time even more, because these files are often quite large and
are not too likely to be infected by a virus
). Again, you can specify by
extensions which files are those that should always be scanned.
·
Optionally, you can decide you want to
Scan files without extension
- this
option is on by default, and it is recommended that you keep it so unless you
have a real reason to change it. Files with no extension are rather suspicious
and should be scanned at all times.
Adjust how quickly Scan completes
Within the
Adjust how quickly Scan completes
section you can further specify the
desired scanning speed dependent on system resource usage. By default, this option
value is set to
user sensitive
level of automatic resource usage. If you want the
scanning to run faster, it will take less time but the system resources usage will
increase significantly during the scan, and will slow down your other activities on the
PC (
this option can be used when your computer is switched on but nobody is
currently working on it
). On the other hand, you can decrease the system resources
usage by extending the scanning duration.
Set additional scan reports

link to open a standalone dialog window
called

should be reported:
Additional scan settings
Click the
Additional scan settings ...
to open a new
Computer shutdown options
dialog where you can decide whether the computer should be shut down automatically
once the running scanning process is over. Having confirmed this option (
Shutdown
computer upon scan completion
), a new option activates that allows the computer
to shut down even if it is currently locked (
Force shutdown if computer is locked
).
