How can I set scanner to run every 24 hrs? I can tell if it is scanning at all?
Thanks
Mike
You can’t schedule in Home version. Only in Professional.

It runs in the background and scan all files (depending on your settings) before they are opened or run. You will see the avast ’ a ’ icon rotating in the system tray at the botton right of the screen.
If you’re using the resident protection, on-access, I won’t run the scanning more than montly.
You can use avast scanning at screensaver time also.
