See the On-Demand Scanning pane on the top, left side of the Home page.
Use on-demand scanning to scan your computer for viruses and infections at any time. You can scan the entire system or scan only the files or folders that you specify.
The pane offers two options:
Click Perform a full system scan to run a full scan of your computer. The Perform Full System Scan window opens to display scan progress and results.
Click Scan a file or folder to scan specific files or folders. The Scan Files or Folders window allows you to specify the files or folders and then the window shows scan progress and results.
To configure settings for what on-demand scanning does or does not include in scanning, open the Settings window and select the On-Demand tab.
To monitor the frequency of full system scans, see the Last Full Scan pane for status and security recommendations.
