ScanScan is launched on demand to detect and eliminate threats on your device (such as infected files as they are opened, unopened files, and uninstalled files in archives). You can choose to scan the entire file system of the device, a specific folder, or installed apps only. You can choose which types of files the app will scan for the presence of threats. When choosing the types of files to be scanned, remember the following:
The app scans the contents of archives for threats irrespective of the file type selected. Scanning of archives of various formats allows you to scan a memory card that is used in several devices, for example. The app analyzes archive formats used in Android and other mobile operating systems. The app scans the following archive formats: ZIP, JAR, JAD, SIS SISX, CAB and APK.

The app analyzes archive formats used in Android and other mobile operating systems. Scanning of archives of various formats allows you to scan a memory card that is used in several devices, for example. When the app scans archives, it unpacks them. Archive scanning can therefore significantly reduce the speed of the device scan. You can select the actions for the app to perform on files in which it has detected threats. Disinfect The app attempts to disinfect the detected file. If the check box is selected, the app first attempts to disinfect a file that it has detected. If the app fails to disinfect the detected file, the app performs the action specified in the If disinfection fails section.

If disinfection fails The action that the app performs on the detected file if disinfection fails or if the Disinfect check box is cleared. You can select one of the following actions:
You can configure a schedule in order to automatically launch a full device scan: choose how often the scan is to be launched, as well as the day and time of launch (if necessary).

When a malicious object is detected, the app performs the action selected in the scan settings. Schedule The frequency with which a full scan of the file system is performed. The following options are available:
