It launches daily quickscans and weekly full scan the moment I start working in the morning - or whenever! It has never scanned at the time I’ve scheduled.
On both, I’ve selected:
Wake up the system to start the scan (if in sleep mode)
Scans are scheduled to start at 04:00 (daily is excluded on day full scan is scheduled)
I checked Windows 7 sleep options and noticed that hybrid sleep is allowed, but I’m unable to turn it off. Unsure how to get that option up, if that’s the problem. I know it can be accessed thru explorer, but don’t know the path to get there…
Disabling, or enabling the hybrid sleep function in windows 7 is not that hard.
Click the start orb, and click Control Panel
In control panel, switch to classic view (or large icons) and choose power options
in power option, click “Change plan settings” on the power plan your PC is set to use
In plan settings, click the link “Change advanced power settings”
In advanced settings, click the + next to sleep then the + next to Allow hybrid Sleep
Change the setting as desired, then click ok, and save settings.
This procedure is the same for all versions of windows that support hybrid sleep. (In windows 8/8.1 right click the bottom left corner and choose control panel, then continue from step 2)
“(In windows 8/8.1 right click the bottom left corner and choose control panel, then continue from step 2)”
You can also use the Windows Key and the X key to bring up that menu and choose control panel.
