Manual Full Virus Scan and Manual Smart Scan

Avast Free Antivirus

For proactive purposes, I run a manual Full Virus Scan and a Smart Scan periodically.

Since both scans detect different components, should a FVS or a SS be run first or does the order not matter?

Pondus:

Yes, I started that linked thread but my direct question was not answered there nor here.

I am aware that On demand scans are really unnecessary-My question is whether a FVS or a SS should be run first or does the ‘order’ not matter?

It doesn’t matter.

Thanks Asyn!

You’re welcome.
