Scan a Folder
The custom scan allows you to scan a specific folder stored in your hard drive, CD/DVD or in external devices like a USB drive connected to your computer. For example you might have copied a folder from another computer in your network, an external device or downloaded from Internet and want to scan it for viruses and other threats before you open it.
To scan a specific folder
- Click Scan from the 'General Tasks' interface and Click 'Custom Scan' from the 'Scan' interface
- Click 'Folder Scan' from the 'Custom Scan' pane
- Navigate to the folder to be scanned in the 'Browse for Folder' window and click 'OK'
