Need help

[REDACTED]

I have some questions regarding my avast. I'm using the free one.

1) Why is it that whenever I perform a scan, at the end of it, it always some "some files cannot be scanned". is that something to worry about?

2) I'm unable to find where to go to set the auto scan settings.

3) How do I check the results of recent scans?

Thanks a lot  i have a same questions on my mind as @alyna.m. And what about the 3) point?

Then question 2 posted in Reply #1 would apply is this for scheduled scans ?

If so - avastUI > Scan > Scan for viruses - at the bottom of the screen 'Scan History.'

We don't mind sharing with genuine avast users.

However, since this is your first post and you are using a link in your signature that you appear to be linked to/connected with.

This is considered link spamming - not to mention you also have a listing on Stop Forum Spam, an entry for your email address. I suspect for the same thing probable link spamming.

I would suggest (if you are a genuine avast user) that you remove the link in your signature or other action is likely to occur.
