Scan schedule

Manually. Run mode in which you can start scan manually at a time when it is convenient for you.

By schedule. In this scan task run mode, Kaspersky Endpoint Security starts the scan task in accordance with the schedule that you create. If this scan task run mode is selected, you can also start the scan task manually.

Start in N minutes after application startup

Postponed start of the scan task after application startup. At operating system startup, many processes are running, therefore it is advantageous to postpone running the scan task instead of running it immediately after Kaspersky Endpoint Security startup.

Run missed tasks

If the check box is selected, Kaspersky Endpoint Security starts the skipped scan task as soon as it becomes possible. The scan task may be skipped, for example, if the computer was off at the scheduled scan task start time. If the check box is cleared, Kaspersky Endpoint Security does not run skipped scan tasks. Instead, it carries out the next scan task in accordance with the current schedule.

Run only when the computer is idle

Postponed start of the scan task when computer resources are busy. Kaspersky Endpoint Security starts the scan task if the computer is locked or if the screen saver is on. If you have interrupted the execution of the task, for example by unlocking the computer, Kaspersky Endpoint Security automatically runs the task, continuing from the point where it was interrupted.

Use automatically randomized delay for task starts

(available only in the Kaspersky Security Center Console)

If the check box is selected, the task is not run strictly on schedule, but randomly within a certain interval, that is, the start times of the task are spread out. Randomized start times help avoid a great number of computers simultaneously accessing the Administration Server when the task is run on schedule.

The range of randomized start times is automatically calculated when the task is created, depending on the number of computers that have the task assigned. Subsequently, the task is always run at its calculated start time. However, whenever task settings are modified or the task is run manually, the calculated start time changes.

If the check box is cleared, the task is run exactly at scheduled time.

Activate the device before the task is started through Wake-on-LAN (min)

(available only in the Kaspersky Security Center Console)

If the check box is selected, the operating system of the computer is given a specified lead time to complete startup before the task is run. The default lead time is 5 minutes.

Select the check box if you want to run the task on all computers including powered off computers.
