Ren 0 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Hello, everytime I connect my external hd WD My Passport, ESET will start to scan it. It takes for a long time. Is there any way to disable scaning? Using latest Eset Cyber Security (trial version for now) Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESET Insiders m4v3r1ck 113 Posted January 9, 2017 ESET Insiders Share Posted January 9, 2017 (edited) Hi Ren, you can set them in the preferences of ESET CS(P) for RTP & CS: In main preferences select RTP: Select your desired Media to Scan. Better leave this one selected for RM: In main preferences select CS: Select SPS (1) for several profiles and then select the ST (2) for each profile that you want to change. Repeat for each SPS needed. Select desired scan targets BY PROFILE SETTINGS: OR select desired scan targets BY DRIVE TYPE -> i.e. in your case only Local Drives. Select the drives you want to scan and click OK! Hope this will help you! Q's? Just let me know!

Ren 0 Posted January 10, 2017 Author Share Posted January 10, 2017 Hello, thank you so much. I understand but is there any way to turn off scanning only for 1 external drive? For example I don't want to scan my external drive but I want to scan all external USB sticks and other external hdd. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESET Insiders m4v3r1ck 113 Posted January 10, 2017 ESET Insiders Share Posted January 10, 2017 In the Select Scan Tragets you (un)select any external drive you want. Just uncheck the name of the drive you do not want to scan during the Computer Scan. I would NOT disable any drive for the Real Time Protection!!!

ESET Insiders m4v3r1ck 113 Posted January 10, 2017 ESET Insiders Share Posted January 10, 2017 Oke. Please post screencaps here to check if we're talking about the same prefs. Greetz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cap #1 are the settings for the Real-Time Protection, #2 are the settings to perform Computer Scans for internal and external drives with Smart/In-depth/Context selections. In your screen #2 a scan is performed By profile setting and selected only your Macintosh HD. Please note that you have to set up and select your drives in Scan Targets for all scan scenarios in the Scan Profile Setups for Computer Scan (Smart/In-depth/Context)! 1. Select Scan Profile 2. Select Setup for Scan Targets (see selections above) Greetz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
