When I open Avast and click on Scan the quick scan starts is this a bug in the program and can it be changed as more often than not it is another scan option I wish to choose. Many thanks
No it isn’t a bug, when you click the Scan tile, it starts the default scan, that is the Quick scan.
You can choose a different scan for your default, by clicking the Security tile and Antivirus Tab, the current default scan will have a Green circle with a check mark. Open the More details option, here you can set the scan to be the default.
Personally I never use the Scan tile as I rarely if ever have the Home metro style page open, I usually open it at the Security tab as it has most of the useful information easily to hand. I also don’t initiate scans manually, but do a weekly schedules Quick scan.
Many thanks for the reply David soon sorted. I do like to run a full scan before starting on line banking/shopping etc ( just a bit paranoid) but as you can see from my posts over the years I have never had any real problems with Avast. Thanks again.
You’re welcome.
