How to use wildcards to specify scan items

You can use wildcards to exclude types of files by extension.
When using wildcards, these limitations apply.
• Valid wildcards are question mark (?) for excluding single characters and asterisk (*) for
excluding multiple characters.
• Wildcards can appear in front of a back slash (\) in a path. For example: C:\ABC\*\XYZ
matches C:\ABC\DEF\XYZ.
• An exclusion containing question mark (?) characters applies if the number of characters
matches the length of the file or folder name. For example: The exclusion W?? excludes
WWW, but does not exclude WW or WWWW.
• The syntax is extended to include a double asterisk (**), which means

zero or more of any

characters including back slash

. This allows multiple-depth exclusions. For example:
C:\ABC\**\XYZ matches C:\ABC\DEF\XYZ and C:\ABC\DEF\DEF\XYZ, etc.

Using scheduled tasks

As part of configuring on-demand scan, AutoUpdate, or mirror tasks, you need to specify when,
how often, and for how long these tasks should run. You also need to configure user permissions
as part of the configuration process.
