siljaline 57 Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Running Endpoint version 5.0.2229.1 on Windows 7 - 32 bit. Issue: advanced scan with email files in advanced parameter setup selected takes approximately 2.5 hours to complete. Screen capture will show results from last scan.This includes a 1.5TB external drive. I'm finding the length of the total scan time too long. Am I at risk deselecting scanning email files ? I do realize they are scanned in real-time but I like to scan them all the same as they sit on my main drive.Feedback and comments on-topic would be appreciated.

Administrators Solution Marcos 5,074 Posted September 10, 2014 Administrators Solution Share Posted September 10, 2014 Scanning almost 1,5 million objects in 2,5 hours is not that bad I think. Feel free to disable email email (which is by default). Just out of curiosity, what email client do you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siljaline 57 Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 I must have carried over scan email from another version - I have deselected email scanning as I see in the scan progress all it's looking at now is email files.All my email is plain text with HTML rules via the client disabled. Mozilla Thunderbird is my default email client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siljaline 57 Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 My new total scan time was less than one hour which is significantly less than ~ 2.5 hours I reported last week. This new scan would be less scanning *.EML files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
