Advanced scan settings

You can access this window from the Advanced settings link in the Edit profile – New scan job window. Here you can configure additional aspects of scheduled scans.

Follow these steps:

  1. Select in the General section if you want to enable scanning of compressed files.

  2. Select the malicious software you want to scan for.

  3. You can scan all files or exclude certain folders or files with specific extensions. In the latter case, use the Add, Clear and Delete buttons to define the list of excluded items.

Linux computers

Not all of the above options are available on Linux computers.  

The option to scan hacking tools and potentially unwanted programs will always be enabled. Exclusions, however, will be disabled.
