  2. defender scans

    Hi Ian,

    Thanks for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    This issue might occur if you have set any task scheduler for Windows Defender.

    I suggest you to delete the task for Windows defender and check if it helps.

    Follow the below steps:


    • Search and open Schedule tasks.

    • In the left-hand menu, open the Task Scheduler Library, then select
      Microsoft >Windows >Windows Defender.

    • Double-click Windows Defender Scheduled Scan.

    • Select the Triggers panel, then select Delete.

    Hope it helps, reply to us with the status of your issue. We will be happy to assist you.

    How can you schedule full scans in Windows 11?

    scheduled computer scan

    It is not listed in the Task Scheduler library and never has been. It has always worked without being in that location on two (2) other pcs.

    I schedule a scan to run daily, weekly, monthly whatever to run at a certain hour. Not my first rodeo

    If I schedule a scan to run daily, it will run the first day and never again.

    It won't run again because I scheduled the scan to run daily at 12pm. It ran yesterday the 18th but not today the 19th. Experience tells me since the problem started on 11/03/18 that it will not run tomorrow. That's three times to tech support and about
    15 times of scheduling.

    Last test result from 01/18/19 at 12[m was completed.

    Like I said in my original question, I have used this application for six years on different machines. I know what I'm doing.

    My question remains is there a setting on W7 SP1 that is hindering the execution of a scheduled scan
