    How do I configure AVG to just scan my C drive only?
    « on: December 04, 2007, 04:39:49 PM »
    I know I can I do "Scan Selected Drives" for a manual scan but for the automatic scans I've been trying to figure out how to set it to just scan my C drive only and then I would scan all the drives once a month.

    The free version is limited on the scheduled scan settings.

    I am not sure if you can or not but open AVG and select Test Center. Then from the Toolbar select Tests > System Areas Test Settings. Again I don't know if it will bethere or not but worth a look.

    I checked pretty thoroughly, and I can't find any setting allowing it.

      You can however edit the scheduler so it runs at 4 AM when you're sleeping...
