Scheduled scan "Run when computer starts up if task has been missed" does not appear to work i.e. it doesn't run after a scheduled task has been missed, when the computer is restarted.

Other Scheduled Scans i.e. "Run at specific times", and "Run on compter startup" all function correctly.

The PC is newly installed Windows 7 Home Premium x64 SP1 patched to latest Microsoft patches (to 30/08/2104)

AVG is newly installed AVG 2014 Free - product 2014.0.4765

There is nothing in Windows Event Log.

Any ideas?

Alan, why are there no release notes for 4745 or 4765? If you know of any, please let us know. BTW what's the unemployment rate in Brno, Czech Republic?

Jon, Actual function explanation… Run on computer startup if task has been missed – if you schedule the task to run at a specific time, this option will ensure that the scan will be performed subsequently in case the computer is turned off at the scheduled time.
