29. How to Scan Files and Folders

Scanning is easy and flexible with BitDefender. There are 4 ways to set BitDefender

to scan files and folders for viruses and other malware:

● Using Windows Contextual Menu

● Using Scan Tasks

● Using BitDefender Manual Scan

● Using Scan Activity Bar

Once you initiate a scan, the Antivirus Scan wizard will appear and guide you through

the process. For detailed information about this wizard, please refer to “Antivirus

Scan Wizard” (p. 52).

29.1. Using Windows Contextual Menu

This is the easiest and recommended way to scan a file or folder on your computer.

Right-click the object you want to scan and select Scan with BitDefender from

the menu. Follow the Antivirus Scan wizard to complete the scan.

Typical situations when you would use this scanning method include the following:

● You suspect a specific file or folder to be infected.

● Whenever you download from the Internet files that you think they might be

dangerous.

● Scan a network share before copying files to your computer.

29.2. Using Scan Tasks

If you want to scan your computer or specific folders regularly, you should consider

using scan tasks. Scan tasks instruct BitDefender what locations to scan, and which

scanning options and actions to apply. Moreover, you can schedule them to run on

a regular basis or at a specific time.

To scan your computer using scan tasks, you must open the BitDefender interface

and run the desired scan task. Depending on the user interface view mode, different

steps are to be followed to run the scan task.

Running Scan Tasks in Novice Mode

In Novice Mode, you can only run a standard scan of the entire computer by clicking

Scan Now. Follow the Antivirus Scan wizard to complete the scan.
