On the Schedule settings tab you can first check/uncheck the Enable this task item to simply
deactivate the scheduled test temporarily, and switch it on again as the need arises.
Next, give a name to the scan you are about to create and schedule. Type the name into the text
field by the Name item. Try to use brief, descriptive, and apt names for scans to make it easier to
later recognize the scan from others.
Example: It is not appropriate to call the scan by the name "New scan" or "My scan" since these
names do not refer to what the scan actually checks. On the other hand, an example of a good
descriptive name would be "System areas scan" etc. It is also not necessary to specify in the
scan's name whether it scans the whole of the computer or just scans selected files or folders -
your own scans will always be a specific version of the scan of selected files or folders.
In this dialog you can further define the following parameters for the scan:
Schedule running - specify the time intervals for the newly scheduled scan launch. The
timing can either be defined by the repeated scan launch after a certain period of time (Run
every ...) or by defining an exact date and time (Run at specific time ...), or possibly by
defining an event that the scan launch should be associated with (Action based on
computer startup).
Advanced schedule options - this section allows you to define under which conditions the
scan should/should not be launched if the computer is in low power mode or switched off
completely.
