Avira - how to scan manually

[Guest orange2310]

Please excuse me as just installed the above and cant get into their forum to

ask this question. So if someone is using this Avira (free edition) may I ask

how do I use this Avira and how can I set it to scan specific folders? Thanks

Most programs, if you have them open and press F-1 key, you get into "Help"

for that program, did you try that?

Right click on the red icon in the System Tray and select "Start AntiVir".

 

Click the Scanner tab. In the window, click on what you want to scan.

The ones showing are pre-defined. Use Manual Selection for specific

folders. Then click the Magnifier icon above the window to start the scan.
