    Scan Complete: Risks: 0 Scanned: 0 Files/Folders/Drives Omitted: 0

    When a New Definitions comes down - our SEP is setup to run a quick scan immediately - - well for the last several weeks on several different SERVERS and PC it gets the new definitions, but Scans nothing ....

    Has anyone seen this ??

    Does anyone else have a fix for it ??

    Thanks,

    Mike

    What happens when you run a Full scan?


    Title: 'Symantec Endpoint Protection client manual or scheduled full scan shows 0 files scanned, scan ends after only a couple of minutes.'

    FULL SCANS WORK OK - no problems there - - -it only occurs on when NEW definitions come in and it trys to do a QUICK Scan right after a definitions is installed .  

    It does not occur ALL the time, only happens randomly - - like maybe once or twice a week

    when I said it occurs once or twice a week - - i meant per machine, we have some that it occurs 2 or 3 times a day - but that by far is the minority ....

    as i stated before this just started happening within the last 4 - 6 weeks...it started very very random and on most machines it still is, however there are 2 that it seems to occur more on ....

    I did try to reinstall it on one of the servers last night and now will wait and see if that fixes the problem
