Hi everyone,

there is a new beta version ready - 22.8.6026 (build 22.8.7435).

What’s new
Improved folders selection in ransomware shield selection dialogue (thanks ccm582 for the idea).
There is new checkbox for auto-continue in smart scan (Get things done quicker). In case there is no issue found by the specific smart scan part, it goes automatically on the next step.

What was fixed
Fixed BSOD caused by incompatibility with McAfee True Key.

Many thanks for the ransomware shield selection dialogue in this beta. It makes selection much easier.

I haven’t been able to locate that checkbox for auto-continue.
Can you lay out the steps to reach it? Thanks

In Premium it’s in the final screen, likely the same in Free version.

IMHO, it would have been much better to put this at the front end,
before the scan starts so you can make a change before running the scan.

You’re welcome, and I agree.
