    Why does my 360 Total Security get stuck on a path and takes forever to finish?


    I run my 360 Total Security each evening after having been online - when I run a virus scan, it gets stuck on a particular path which I'll post. Since I am NO I.T. person, I'm hoping someone can explain why this is happening, what, if anything can I do about it? It sometimes takes 45 minutes, which is entirely too long - something is not right! Thanks in advance for your help.

    The path is: C:/Windows/System32/rundll32.exe - yes, I know that my slashes are incorrect, but you get the idea. : Thanks again!

    :)

    Hi JonathanGiudice,

    My name is Carl and I am an independent Windows 10 advisor.

    Scans can take a long time depending on the size of what they are scanning. To do a full system scan of around 1TB or more it can take a while which is why they're, typically, triggered when the computer is idle

    It's probably more of a question for Total Security than Windows I'm afraid. I don't see anything you can do in Windows which would affect this. RunDLL32 is a recognized tool. I'd talk to Total Security to see if there is a program update that will fix this.

    Kind regards,

    Carl.

    Hi JonathanGludice,

    My pleasure. If Total Security come back with any suggestions on the Windows side then please feel free to raise the question here and we'll do our best to help.

    Have a great Sunday.

    Kind regards,

    Carl.
