Malwarebytes Question

[system]

I noticed when I scan individual folders with MBAM, it scans a lot less than avast! For example, I scanned my USB drive with avast! and it scanned over 65k files, while MBAM only scanned 578. Does MBAM not scan as thoroughly? Is there a way to make it?

I`m not an ekspert but maybe it is Scanning infectable files only?

I don’t think there is a way to make it scan more file.Besides,just because it scanned less file,that doesn’t make the scan “not through”

You might want to ask that question on their forum:

Check your settings to see which files are being scanned.
