To select the scan task run mode:

  1. Open the application settings window.
  2. In the left part of the window, in the Scheduled tasks section, select the subsection containing the name of the required task (Full Scan, Critical Areas Scan or Custom Scan).

    In the right part of the window, the settings of the selected scan task are displayed.

  3. Click the Run mode button.

    A window with the properties of the selected task opens on the Run mode tab.

  4. In the Run mode section, select the task run mode: Manually or By schedule.
  5. If you selected the By schedule option, specify the schedule settings. To do so:
    1. In the Frequency drop-down list, select the task run frequency (Minutes, Hours, Days, Every week, At a specified time, Every month, or After application startup, After every update).
    2. Depending on the selected frequency, configure advanced settings that specify the task run schedule.
    3. If you want Kaspersky Endpoint Security to start skipped scan tasks as soon as possible, select the Run skipped tasks check box.

      If Minutes, Hours, After application startup or After every update item is selected in the Frequency drop-down list, the Run skipped tasks check box is unavailable.

    1. If you want Kaspersky Endpoint Security to suspend a task when computer resources are limited, select the Run only when the computer is idle check box.

      This schedule option helps to conserve computer resources.

  6. Click OK.
  7. To save changes, click the Save button.
