Scheduled scans not running - BTS 2019 - Windows

Options


My scheduled quick and full scans do not run but I have no problem starting them manually. 


This problem only started when I updated to BTS 2019 - scheduled scans worked fine with BTS 2018.


Any suggestions? Thanks

  • Hi,


    Please let us know if the scheduled scans in question were created when the 2019 product was initially installed or recently with the new updates.


    Additionally, please send us a couple of screenshots showcasing the scheduled scan configuration in question.


    Lastly, please let us know what timezone you're contacting us from.


    Thanks!

    Thanks for your reply Stephan.


    • This has been a problem since the 2019 product was initially installed.

    • Attached are 2 screenshots of the scheduled configuration (with later starting dates then there were initially since after I discovered the problem I tried to schedule the scans again).

    • My timezone is GMT +2


    Thanks again.

    Please try to delete the existing scheduled scans and recreate them now.


    For now please schedule them for a couple of minutes away of their time of creation to be able to test them and make sure that under the Advanced tab you've unchecked:


    - Close Scan window


    - Minimize Scan Wizard to system tray


    - Run task with low priority

    Hi Stephan,


    • I deleted the existing scheduled scans and scheduled one-time scans for a quick scan and a full scan (at different times).  They didn't run.

    • I then deleted those scheduled scans and recreated a scheduled full scan on start up, and restarted my computer. That didn't run either.

    • I then successfully ran a manual full system scan with no issues reported.


    Thanks for trying,

    Seagull

    Thanks Stefan but I'm not sure how to get a log of something that doesn't happen.
