Daman.... Ive always done a full scan. If i dont need to do one, then it should not be an option. I do a full scan once a week, and do the quick scan and flash scan (as they used to be called) once a day. Its on an automatic schedule. I did post my specs...i dont know what other specs would be relevant for this conversation. I only posted once, so telling me to be patient does not really make any sense I dont need to read a guide. ive been in the business for 25 years and been using malwarebytes since the beginning. I know how to change things, but the program is a resource hog, the scans take 5 times longer, and overall just a poor user experience.
