About scan tasks

When performing a full scan, custom scan, critical areas scan, scan from the context menu or background scan, Kaspersky Endpoint Security does not scan files whose contents are located in OneDrive cloud storage, and generates a record in the log, that those files were not scanned.

To find viruses and other types of malware and check the integrity of application modules, Kaspersky Endpoint Security includes the following tasks:

To conserve computer resources, it is recommended to run a background scan task instead of a full scan task. This will not affect the security level.

The Full Scan and Critical Areas Scan tasks are somewhat different than the others. For these tasks, it is not recommended to edit the scan scope.

After scan tasks start, the task completion progress is displayed under the name of the running scan task in the Tasks window.

Information on the scan results and events that have occurred during the performance of scan tasks is logged in a Kaspersky Endpoint Security report.
