USB/DVD scan in AVG internet security

General discussion

Hello Johnson,
Thank you for contacting AVG Community Support.
Thank you for reaching out. Could you please confirm if you're referring to the USB/DVD scan option in AVG Internet Security?
If so, this feature scans any USB or DVD device connected to your computer for potential threats.
Unfortunately, it doesn't automatically start when a device is detected. You can manually initiate the scan by going to

  • Open AVG AntiVirus and select the type of scan you want to run.
  • USB / DVD Scan: Click Run other scans ▸ USB / DVD Scan.
Let me know if you need further details.

Under the caption of 'other scans', there is a  scan called 'USB/DVD scan'. Could it be made available as soon as the computer sensed a USB stick is present in the D: drive?

Thanks,
Johnson.
