  3. In the protected device's file resource tree, open the context menu of the Virtual drives node, click Add virtual drive and select the name of the virtual drive from the list of available names.
  4. Select the check box next to the added drive in order to include the drive in the scan scope.
  5. Click the Save button.

The modified task settings are saved.
