    From MalwareBytes User Guide I found this in the scheduled scan section:

    "Recovery Options allow you to recover from a missed task (e.g. your computer was off at the time a scan was to take place). A scheduled task – if missed – will run at its next opportunity as long as it is within the duration specified by the Recover if missed by selector and the Recover missed tasks checkbox is checked."

    It does not mention wake when Off (nor sleep) I think. My scheduled settings have been during awake time during the morning. I set it for a daily scan during sleep mode tonight.

    Do you have your schedule scan set to occur during sleep time? Could this be the reason why your daily did not work?

    This thing goes to sleep after 30 minutes idle time. Like me, it naps a lot. Probably won't change anything right now. Like I'd said earlier, I'm starting to question a need for it anyway. So manually keeping up with it may be just what I need to keep me busy.

    Looks like a benefit of CU update is MB runs on schedule now, nightly at 01:00. I'm going to say this is fixed.

    Thanks to all that contributed.
