Thanks Sreenu Yadavalli I looked in the AVG AntiVirus and AVG Internet Security products. Yes the instructions below at Scanning USB drivers and removable devices for viruses do not apply to my product and if I were using the newer AVG Internet Security Unlimited; where is it? Reason is I don’t see any menu, options, or advanced settings and I don’t see the version or properties in these programs at all. Any direction will be helpful.

You're welcome, Mix.

If you're still unable to locate the AVG USB / DVD Scan, please check & mention the program version of your AVG Internet Security.
We'll then check & assist you accordingly.
