Hi
sched.exe
cannot add key to registry for onboot scan
/RA:repair
or how can I do that through console?
Sometimes it is not enough time to wait untill scann will be completed, and if some virus will be found or not…
ehh…
What is your OS?
My OS is WindowsXP Pro.
I did clean instollation of windows and avast Pro yestoday, for better testing of it.
ehh… need to know more to be able to use protection so good as possible
I suggest you read the manual/help to familiarize yourself with Avast and the options/settings it brings you.
I read manual.
But I am most intresting in manage of avast throug command line, cuz it is much faster.
I using for the most avast professional and helping them who have alredy installed avast. So my knowledge is almost good.
I want to use it so silent as possible cuz not all know what button to push when avast asking What you want to do?
Avast is one of the fastest way for recovery of virus infected systems, for me.
Avast pro has the command line scanner called: ashcmd.exe
It is not in the home vresion.
I know that.
I wan to know how to scheduel silent scan on boot for aswBoot.exe with sched.exe
Switch to the advanched user interface.
Select shedule boot time scan
Put a checkmark at ‘advanched’ and set it like you want
I’m afraid the sched.exe tool doesn’t support setting of the default action right now.
You can, however, schedule the boot-time scan (with your preferred settings) through the Simple or Enhanced User Interface, then dump the registry value stored in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\BootExecute
and use the resulting .reg file to schedule the subsequent scans (I believe that sched.exe, or the corresponding dialog in the program interface, doesn’t do anything but set the registry value).
Note that the BootExecute value is a multi-string (i.e. other programs may write there as well) - but unless you use some other low-level tools, it should be rather constant.
Thank you, that works fine. ;D
But I have a one little quiestion left…
“system files” how definite avast them?:
As files that are executable and is in the windows folders?
As files that are executable and is in the marked as systemfiles? (attrib +s)
As files that are executable and is in the list of windows files? (white list)
As files that are executable and is signed by microsoft and is in the windows folder?
The “system file” is defined as “any file in Windows folder” here.
