Automatically Scan USB sticks ?

Hello Mark Sime,

this is a long and often sought for feature with an IMO disputable use and benefit. USB sticks are, albeit removable, local storage and thus subject to Real-time scanning - access to malicious files residing on them will be blocked anyway.

As i suspected. Thanks Christian. 

Hi Mark, 

The real-time scanning by default will scan the contents of the USB/External drives when the files are being accessed, modified or executed. But it will not scan the entire drive instead.
