How do I enable all of the capabilities within the ESET Smart Security On-Demand scanner?
ESET Smart Security's default scan settings are configured to maximize your computer's performance and security protection. However, some options are not enabled within the default profile due to the amount of time required to scan and the possibility of conflicts with existing software. You can enable these options by following the steps below:
1. Open ESET Smart Security by clicking the icon in the Windows system tray or by clicking Start → All Programs → Eset → Eset Smart Security.
2. Switch to Advanced Mode by clicking Toggle Advanced mode in the lower left corner, or by pressing CTRL + M on your keyboard..
3. Click Setup in the left column and then click Enter entire advanced setup tree....
4. The Setup window will appear. In the left column under Antivirus and antispyware, click On-demand computer scan..
5. Ensure that the Selected profile is set to In-depth scan. Click the ThreatSense engine parameter setup: button..
6. In the ThreatSense engine parameter setup window, click the Objects branch in the left column. Verify that all options in the Objects section on the right are selected..
7. Click the Options branch in the left column. In the Options section on the right, verify that every check box is selected..
8. Click the Cleaning branch in the left column. In the Cleaning section on the right side, set the Cleaning Level slider to Strict cleaning (all the way to the right). Click OK..
9. Click the Scan targets: Setup button. Verify that the Scan targets drop-down menu is set to By profile settings. Select the My Computer check box, and click OK. This will ensure that all drives, as well as operating memory, are scanned..
With these options enabled, you will not be prompted when threats are found. ESET Smart Security will first attempt to clean the threat. If unsuccessful, it will delete it. The scan time might also be increased due to the in-depth scanning that is performed.
