13.5. Scan Scheduling
With AVG 8.5 Anti-Virus plus Firewall you can run scanning on demand (for
instance when you suspect an infection has been dragged to your computer) or based
on a scheduled plan. It is highly recommended to run the scans based on a schedule:
this way you can make sure your computer is protected from any possibility of getting
infected, and you will not have to worry about if and when to launch the scan.
You should launch the Scan whole computer regularly, at least once a week.
However, if possible, launch the scan of your entire computer daily - as set up in the
scan schedule default configuration. If the computer is "always on" then you can
schedule scans out of working hours. If the computer is sometimes switched off, then
schedule scans to occur on a computer start-up when the task has been missed.
To create new scan schedules, see the AVG scanning interface and find the bottom
section called Schedule scans:
