Too long to full scan desktop pc - 16/7/2019

[Guest malaccan]

It now takes a very long time for the desktop pc to be scanned for virus by MS Security Essentials.

 

Previouisly, it takes maximum of 4 hours to do full scan. Now it takes about 3 times the time, 13 hours to fully scan. I’ve not downloaded or input any new or additional files,videos or other programs into the pc at all. Wish to know why then it’s taking this much long time to complete the scan. This 13 hour scan started from about one month ago from the 4 hour scan.

 

Is there any way the full scan time can be shortened, sped up. Am using OS Windows 7 (Home) and browser IE 11.******
