Scans used to take 3 hours, now it takes 20 with the new layout

Could drive fragmentation cause longer scan times?

Hello Kevin,

Please be informed that the AVG Protection scan timeframe depends on the size of hard drive, number of files present on the hard drive, size of RAM and the scan settings.
If you run a deep scan then the timeframe will be more when compared to normal whole computer scan.

Scans used to take 3 hours, now they take 20? it started with this newer look (the layout of the screen) and it's too much, I am using windows 8.1 (Nothing I do has changed) Any advice???

Could drive fragmentation cause longer scan times?

Yes, the PC TuneUp drive fragmenation takes more time, however it shouldn't get hanged for a long time.
If you are facing such issues, do let us know.
