Device Scanning
Acronis Internet Security can detect automatically when a new storage device
is connected to the computer and scan it. Use this task to configure the
options of the automatic detection and scanning of storage devices
(CDs/DVDs, USB storage devices or mapped network drives).
Contextual Scan
This task is used when scanning via the Windows contextual menu or using
the scan activity bar. You can modify the scan options to better suit your
needs.
● Idle Scan Tasks - contains a list of default system tasks which can be scheduled
to run when you are away from your computer. With complex tasks, the scanning
process will take some time and it will work best if you don't use your system
during that time. That is why you should schedule such tasks when your computer
has gone into the idle mode.
You can manage scan tasks using the buttons or the shortcut menu.
To run a system or user-defined scan task, click the corresponding Run Task button.
The Antivirus Scan wizard will appear and guide you through the scanning process.
To set a scan task to run automatically, at a later moment or regularly, click the
corresponding Schedule button and configure the task schedule as needed.
If you no longer need a scan task that you have created (a user-defined task), you
can delete it by clicking the
Delete button, located to the right of the task. You
cannot remove system or miscellaneous tasks.
Each scan task has a Properties window where you can configure its settings and
view the scan logs. To open this window click the Properties button to the left of
the task (or right-click the task and then click Properties).
To learn more, please refer to these topics:
● “Configuring Scan Settings” (p. 52)
● “Setting Scan Target” (p. 54)
● “Scheduling Scan Tasks” (p. 55)
Using Shortcut Menu
A shortcut menu is available for each task. Right-click the selected task to open it.
For system and user-defined tasks, the following commands are available on the
shortcut menu:
● Scan Now - runs the selected task, initiating an immediate scan.
● Paths - opens the Properties window,
Paths tab, where you can change the
scan target of the selected task. In the case of system tasks, this option is replaced
by Show Scan Paths, as you can only see their scan target.
