Note
Since the Deep System Scan and Full System Scan tasks analyze the entire system,
the scanning may take a while. Therefore, we recommend you to run these tasks on
low priority or, better, when your system is idle.
When you initiate an on-demand scanning process, whether a quick or a full scan,
the BitDefender Scanner will appear.
Follow the three-step guided procedure to complete the scanning process.
