Scheduled Defender Scans


Recommended Posts

Posted

Seems since SP1 (using Windows Ultimate) that Windows Defender decides at

random when to do a scan, in spite of a schedule time that is set at 4 AM. It

did a scan today at 7 PM. (I deleted the scheduled event couple days ago,

rebooted, and added back in a scheduled event but still scans when it chooses

not when I choose)

We have experienced the same problem with my wife's laptop. Anyone heard of

any fixes with this? It is pretty frustrating.
