Hi, Natalie.
Thank you for reaching us here. In general, users schedule a scan to run once or twice in a week. When one of this scan is missed, it increases chances that threats might be lurking somewhere in your PC. So whenever a scheduled scan is missed, it is recommended to run it on your next PC startup. However, we'd request to open AVG Internet Security, click Menu > About > Submit feedback to submit your valuable feedback to our developers.
Feedback for AVG - there used to be an option on schedule scan settings that allowed you to check or unchecked if you wanted a scan to be run when missed. Please, please bring that back!!! I work from home a couple days a week and sometimes my daily scan gets missed. The problem with this is that it starts running as soon as my machine boots up which causes extreme latency for me when trying to work! Would love to be able to tell the product not to scan when missed!!! Please consider bringing this back in a soon update!
