Hi zilog,
Thank you for your reply. Since that reply I have done two separate sets of comparable tests (in that the numbers of items and total sizes scanned were identical). In both cases the GUI method has taken some 40% longer than using the Console.
I would still like to know if "daily" updates can be done from the Command Line and, if so, which command to try?
My regards
Added:
I just tried a Quick scan on one of the above tests using the GUI and that was faster than using the Console, but I have no idea if my Console automatically uses Quick, Standard or Thorough (perhaps there is a log to tell me).
