Creating virus scan tasks
To scan objects on your computer for viruses, you can use built-in scan tasks
included with the program and create your own tasks. New scan tasks are
created using existing tasks that a template.
To create a new virus scan task:
1. Select a task whose settings are closest to your requirements under
Scan
in the application main window.
2. Open context menu and select
Save As
or click on New Scan Task.
3. Enter the name for the new task in the window that opens and click
OK
.
A task with that name will then appear in the list of tasks in the
Scan
section of the main program window.
Warning!
There is a limit to the number of tasks that the user can create. The maximum is
four tasks.
The new task is a copy of the one it was based on. You need to continue setting
it up by creating an scan object list (see 11.2 on pg. 126), setting up properties
that govern the task (see 11.4 on pg. 129), and, if necessary, configuring a
schedule (see 6.6 on pg. 60) for running the task automatically.
