I'm attempting to run Spybot in a batch file. I want it to update, immunize, scan, fix errors, then close.
What is wrong with this command?
"C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\SpybotSD.exe" /autoupdate /autoimmunize /autofix /taskbarhide /autoclose
It just hangs. If I take out the /taskbarhide so I can see what it's doing, it updates then opens the program and sits there. Doesn't immunize and doesn't scan.
I tried the following in a BATch file:
"C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\SpybotSD.exe" /autoupdate /autoclose
"C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\SpybotSD.exe" /autoimmunize /autoclose
"C:\Program Files\Spybot - Search & Destroy\SpybotSD.exe" /autofix /autoclose
That updated, then opened the program and sat there till I closed out
Immunized, then opened the program and sat there till I closed out
Finally scanned, fixed, and prompted me with the items fixed. I still had to close out manually.
What am I doing wrong? Is there an easier way to do this? I need it to update, immunize, and scan without user input, because it's to be run automatically overnight.
Thanks,
Dawn
