Resident scan (Advanced)

The resident scan offers one of the most important functions of Panda Antivirus: that of providing permanent protection against viruses. The permanent protection starts working as soon as the operating system is started up. From that moment on, its job is to monitor all operations carried out on the computer that may be susceptible to virus infection.

This way, the resident scan ensures that your computer remains virus-free in a totally automatic way.

In the resident scan section, you can see an activity report of the resident scan, a summary of the number of files scanned and the number of viruses detected, as well as the possibility of enabling or disabling this type of scan.

In addition, in advanced mode you also have the possibility of configuring the resident program scan to indicate the options with which you want to perform the scan, and the option of unloading the resident scan.
