Change process priority and shutdown option while scanning?

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security
1

Hello everyone,
Was there not such a feature, that I can switch the priority of scanning while it already started? Need to be something configured for that? Was there also once a option where you can let the computer shut down when the scan is complete? I would appreciate it if there would be such features in avast.

Greetings, Pointex

Good question. I’m hoping for an answer. Doesn’t anyone read these posts?

ctrl-alt-del will bring up the taskmanger.
Click the processes tab
Right click on the avast scan process
Change priority

If you schedule a scan, you will have the option to shutdown a system when it is finished.

Won’t allow me to change priority.

Open the GUI select scan, select the scan you wish to change and then click settings
In the window that opens select performance
Adjust to your hearts content
