Issue

  • Schedule a weekly In-depth scan of your system (recommended)

Solution

I am a Mac user

Computer must be powered on for a scheduled scan to occur

A scheduled scan will run at the time and frequency you configure. However, if the computer is in sleep mode or any other power-saving state at that time, the scan will not occur. The computer must be fully powered on.

  1. Specify an alternate time for the task to run in the event it does not run at the scheduled time (for example, if the computer is off). To prevent instances of the same tasks from running on top of each other, we recommend you select Immediately, if time since last run exceeds a specified value. Type 24 in the Time since last run (hours) field and click Next.
