Avast defalut quick scan settings?
« on: February 21, 2014, 08:10:44 PM »
I adjusted the quick scan settings and can't remember what the default settings are; can someone give them to me?  Thanks!

Just use the avastUI > Settings > Troubleshooting > Restore factory defaults - Program settings (including default scans).
Windows 10 Home 64bit/ Acer Aspire F15/ Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5GHz, 8GB DDR4 memory, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD/ avast! free 24.4.6112 (build 24.4.9067.762) UI 1.0.803/ Firefox, uBlock Origin, uMatrix/ MailWasher Pro/ Avast! Mobile Security

I don't want the other settings I've changed to go back to defaults.

That is why it's better to create a scan than to tweak a default scan.
Sadly, you either restore to factory default or start over completely.
There is no in-between. It's "either/or".

The defaults are...
Dell Inspiron, Win10x64--HP Envy Win10x64--Both systems Avast Free v17.9.2322, Comodo Firewall v8.2 w/D+, MalwareBytes v3.0, OpenDNS, Super Anti-Spyware, Spyware Blaster, MCShield, Unchecky, Vivaldi Browser and, various browser security tools.

You're welcome!
Had other things to do last night and that is why there was a delay
in my checking back.
