    • Safe Lock Application Lockdown Scan: Scan only the files that were quarantined or blocked after the Trend Micro Safe Lock™ Application Lockdown function was turned on and files that were executed (but not listed on the Approved List)

    • Specific folders: Limit the scan to the drives and folders you select

  • Scan Option

    • Scan removable drives: Select to scan any removable drives connected to the endpoint
