Scans when no scan is scheduled
« on: April 08, 2017, 06:51:07 PM »
In the prior version I had a full scan scheduled to begin every night at 11:30pm. When Avast Free automatically updated it no longer shows any scheduled scans anywhere including Special Scans. But yet it does that 11:30 pm full scan every night.

I'd like to make some changes to the scan but cannot find where to change it. Has anyone heard of this happening, a scan running every night but no scheduled scan is visible?

Before Free auto updated to 2291 I had told it to update and that update failed. Three times. I then used one of the links to download the update and try running it. That also failed (ran as Administrator). But then a few days later it showed that it is updated. I don't know if this has a bearing on the missing schedule.

Thanks.

Well, crap, I feel really stupid. I found the scheduled scan. It was not where I expected it. My fault. Consider this one resolved.
