Why does the last scanned date not change after I have run a scan?

Question

Hi,

I ran a scan yesterday that 'appeared' to complete properly. I received no messages saying I had any issues.

However, when I click on the Sophos icon and click on Open Sophos Anti-Virus, it still tells me the last scan was in June this year.

Any ideas why this is? Is this a known bug?

Are there any logs I can look at to confirm the scan did run properly?

Many thanks in advance for any assistance/guidance.

Regards,

Geoff

Try turning off automatic updates prior to running a scan. Does this fix the problem?

In some cases, the scan can end prematurely due to an automatic update. This is not expected behaviour, but reports confirm that it sometimes happens.
