Deep Scan running for 24 hours +

  • I ran Smart Scan. Then I ran Deep Scan which is still running 24 hours later and always indicates 95% completed. It's constantly working on my 4TB Time Machine external drive.
    - I took my iMac and 4TB external drive to computer repair. All viruses and malware were removed.
    - It's now two weeks later. I ran Smart Scan again. No viruses. Then I ran Deep Scan again. It is still running 24 hours later and always indicates 95% completed. It is once again constantly working on my 4TB Time Machine external drive.
    - HELP!!
