     I could not find it either but according to the Aministrator-defined Scans:Advanced

    http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/ent-security.nsf/docid/2008032010461048 

    It should be enabled by default (on batteries scheduled scans are delayed). I would guess this setting is the same for standalone.

    However on a standalone you can do some tune scanning options for optimal performance. If you edit a defined scheduled scan and go to advanced you will find this setting.

    even i checked could not find.

    I installed an unmanaged client and searched in help topics, could not find any..

    is it because i installed on desktop and did not get the battery option.whatever was not able to find in the help topics, so cant really say..i'm still checking it :)

    Hi SV,

    Been a long time to find this key

    navigate to

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\AV\AdministratorOnly\General

    on the right hand side you will find a key called
    SSPowerMgmt
    meaning Schedule scan power management :)

    if its 1 its enabled ( Delay scan running on batteries is enabled)
    if its 0 its disabled(Delay scan running on batteries is disabled)
