Scan Only

[kesher]

I only want to use Spybot as a scanner, and so I don't want any real time protection. What do I need to switch off and how?


THANKS

Hello,

That's the way to deactivate it: run Spybot-S&D, switch to the "Advanced mode" via the menu bar item "Mode" --> hit "YES" --> select "Tools" in the navigation bar on the left --> "Resident" and there you can untick the checkboxes in front of the two tools.

I can see only one tickbox for Resident; but you mentioned two tools

Hello,

Then you are still on the tools page and did not choose resident from the navigation bar on the left.
