I still don’t get this suggestion that a boot time scan with any AV is for expert “expert” use. If nothing is there to be worried about a boot time scan should give no different results from a full scan at the same sensitivity settings. The idea seems to be that if there is or you suspect there is a problem only then are you supposed to use the boot time scan on the advice of said expert to see if the AV can find something from outside the OS when the ordinary full scan doesn’t.

The excuse that it might produce more FPs may be true but if that happpens it is a failing in the design of the AV not the fault of the user. Those FPs are still going to occur during any boot time scan whether you do it with the advice of an expert or off your own bat.

I also agree with the OP, rather than stalling the scan when a suspect file is found during boot time scanning, why not include a thirty second window to respond and if the user isn’t available or does nothing then continue the scan right to the end? There report and list all the actionable problems found and stop then rather than reboot.
