Quick Defender scan

To quickly scan an individual computer for viruses, open the context menu of the computer in the Computer view, then click on Run action on computer and select the menu command Quick scan for viruses. The start of this quick scan is displayed in the computer details under Actions. If a virus is found, it is displayed under Detected threats.

The quick scan can only work if a user is logged in to the system locally. Logging on via a remote desktop connection (RDP session) is not sufficient, as Defender Management tasks cannot be carried out from the DOC in RDP sessions or Terminal Server / Citrix sessions.
