Issue: Bitdefender autoscans attached flashdrive on start-up
I'm new to Bitdefender and installed Bitdefender Premium Security recently. I have 2 flash drives attached to the laptop with documents, etc. and after configuring Bitdefender I see that the app automatically runs a scan on one of them at start-up (either from a shut down or restart state). Interestingly, the other drive does not trigger this action.
The problem is these are trusted "devices" and I need to disable this action from happening in the future. Any suggestions?

This setting,
"Have you tried this setting? Protection => Antivirus => Settings and disable Scan flash drives" is not found on my app. How do I stop/disable Scan Flash Drives when there is no switch to turn this on or off??
