To run a Quick Scan, follow these steps:
1. Open the Bitdefender window.
2. On the Antivirus panel, click Scan Now and select Quick Scan from the
drop-down menu.

automatically take the recommended actions on detected files. If there remain
unresolved threats, you will be prompted to choose the actions to be taken on
them.
16.2.4. Running a System Scan
The System Scan task scans the entire computer for all types of malware threatening
its security, such as viruses, spyware, adware, rootkits and others. If you have turned
off Autoscan, it is recommended to run a System Scan at least once a week.
Note
Because System Scan performs a thorough scan of the entire system, the scan may
take a while. Therefore, it is recommended to run this task when you are not using
your computer.
Before running a System Scan, the following are recommended:
● Make sure Bitdefender is up-to-date with its malware signatures. Scanning your
computer using an outdated signature database may prevent Bitdefender from
detecting new malware found since the last update. For more information, please
refer to “Keeping Bitdefender up-to-date” (p. 36).
● Shut down all open programs.
If you want to scan specific locations on your computer or to configure the scanning
options, configure and run a custom scan. For more information, please refer to
“Configuring a custom scan” (p. 76).
