With the AVG antivirus free edition, is it possible to reschedule the scan so it doesn't run da

I don't want it running everyday, it takes ages and really slows down my computer, but I've looked in the scheduler section and can only see an option to reschedule the update.



I can't seem to find the option anywhere, is it only with the paid for edition that you can do this?



Cheers! xx

Yes it is possible%26gt;doubleclick on icon in taskbar



and just above the icon you will see



scheduled tasks%26gt;click on that and the tasks box



will appear%26gt;highlight%26gt;test plan in basic mode and



click edit schedule and yet another box will appear



and thats the one you want.Uncheck!!!!!!!!!



The best way now is not to have a schedule scan,



but scan when going out or to bed and check the



box on L/H bottom corner to turn off computer



when finished.This is an exellent improvement.



Hope this helps



edit. you cannot change auto updates as RON M said, as it is system set.

No, but you can change the time it does it i think.
Yes.
You can set AVG's 'free" version to scan when you want it to or not "auto" scan at all. Just do the following.
