Hi Christine.
We'd like to inform that the later scans will take less time to complete because the time taken to analyze the files for the first time is higher.
I see that every file is scanned on your PC on both occasions and I assure everything is working fine.
I have AVG Internet Security. I run Deep Scan almost daily. I noticed that the run-time has reduced significantly by 10 minutes. It was 18 minutes on 31st July, 8 minutes on 3rd August and 8 minutes on 4th August. The number of files scanned seems to be about the same each time i.e. 479,000+ files.
I read somewhere on the internet that if an anti-virus scan finishes too quickly, the PC could be infected with a virus. Please tell me if there is a problem.
My virus definitions are up to date. Release date was 5 August 2020 00:30 (ver. 200804-8)
My application is up to date. Release date was 30 July 2020 08:24 (ver. 20.6.3135 - build 20.6.5495.587)
Below are from my Deep Scan report:
