  • 1.  Will SEP 11 scan all drives on a machine?

    Posted Mar 31, 2009 03:56 PM
    Hi,

    I have a machine with multiple physical drives (C:\, D:\, E:\) that I have set to do periodic quick scans, and weekly full scans. 

    Will Endpoint 11 (we have 11.0.4000, MR 4) find and scan each drive, or just C:\?

    Thanks in advance.

    The regular full scan will scan all drives the OS is aware of that are not removable or networked (as I understand it) as well as all files the OS can access.
    The quick scans do the higher-threat areas, OS folders, etc. - if you have a drive F for example, that's only data and no OS files, I don't believe a quick scan will touch it.

    Custom scans will scan only the drives YOU select. (or files you select and not those you exclude)
