I have the latest version of Home AVG on 2 Windows computers, 7, and 8. I have AVG set to scan nightly and shut down after scan. However, both machines are not shutting down.
Harry,
I apologize for the delayed response. But there is no option in AVG 2017 to shut down PC after the scan completes. However we will take your feedback. We are working on a major update to implement the feature that you requested and other options that was requested by few customers.
This process will take time but we assure you that this will be done as soon as possible.
We are planning to provide the 2017 version with the complete options that was requested, hence every customers are satisfied with it.
Previous version I could set the condition to shut down the computer after a (deep) scan. How do I do this on the new interface ? And I don't think the option in the Schedule menu is what I am after.
Hi Alok,
Thaks for the feed back.
In the older version of the software I could enable a preference to have AVG "shutdown" the computer after all (i.e.,any type of) scan so I didn't have to schedule a scan in order to have it shutdown at the conclusion of a scan. (As I recall it even had options to handle various problems that could occur during shutdown). This was great because I could just click on Deep Scan and go to bed without having to go through the tedium of scheduling a scan. Now it appears that I have to acutally schedule a scan in order to have AVG shut down the computer at the end of a (Deep) Scan. Very inconvenient ! I liked the old way … it made more sense. Just click on Deep Scan and go to bed !
Best Regards,
Harry
Hello Harry,
We do have this in AVG Internet Security 2017 version, Open the AVG Internet Security user interface on your desktop > click the gear icon next to Scan Computer > after that please click gear icon under "Deep scan" > scheduling > check the box "shut down the system after the scan finishes" and click Ok.
Best regards,
Alok.
