scanning mse enquiry

joe134

Hi, Had Mse 2 days now instead of avg. However I cannot get it to scan on schedule. It is set correctly, but shows no sign of scanning. Also even when I scan mannually, it shows it is scanning, but doees not giv e any results, or any history of last scan. I can only presume that when scan is done manually, it is clean, and as to schedule; it asks to scan when on but not in use.Has anyone got MSE and can help please. I like to know the scan history and results, even if nothing is found?

Hi, Thanks, it would appear that it only logs threats detected, not logging scans. I have this second logged on having rescheduled after running manual scan this morning and pop up said "scanning now"Have to get used to it.Now I know scheduled is working, should be ok.
