  2. Click Security & Tuneup Controls, then click on Scan Preferences.Scan Preference
  3. Check or uncheck items on how you want Trend Micro to scan your computer:
    • Enable real-time scanning for compressed files (like ZIP files)
      Checks files reduced in size through data compression techniques. These files commonly end with the .ZIP or .RAR and require a specific program to unpack, unzip, or decompress its contents.
    • Enable machine-learning to protect from new or unknown threats
      Trend Micro next-gen antivirus solutions leverages machine learning to improve the detection rate of unknown malware.
    • Check if programs try to make unauthorized changes to system settings that could threaten your security

    • Prevent programs on portable drives from launching automatically
      Blocks programs that try to start running without your permission when you plug a USB drive into the computer. Flash memory or other portable USB drives rarely include certain kinds of programs that launch automatically, so they usually represent a threat if found.
    • Immediately close programs that have been exploited by Hackers
      Closes software that can be used to take advantage of a flaw in a computer system, typically for malicious purposes such as installing malware
    • Protect documents against unauthorized encryption or modification

    • Back up files encrypted or modified by suspicious program

    • Protection Level

      Hypersensitive – Aggressively eliminates programs that may only pose a small risk of bad behavior.
      Switch protection level automatically – Increase the protection level only when you need it.
    • Automatically delete files that show any signs of a threat
      Gets rid of any file that might cause trouble. This aggressive response could remove some harmless files along with the unsafe ones, so consider using this protection only when receiving files or installing programs that seem risky.
    • Automatically delete joke programs
      Gets rid of joke programs that are considered relatively harmless but are often annoying, or may cause unnecessary panic.
    • Display a warning after detecting viruses, spyware, or suspicious behavior
      Provides a notification when a threat is detected, quarantined, or removed, or when programs on the computer behave in a suspicious manner.
    • Automatically delete potentially unwanted applications
