How do i disable automatic scanning of AVG free edition?

When i new day begins, i wake up, use the PC, that darn antivirus of mine does an automatic scanning! how do i disable that automatic scanning, i want to scan myself when i think i have a virus, not just scan all the time, when i first use the computer.

and besides, i dont have any threats, so it should not do that automatic scanning!! how do i disable that? if i disable that automatic scanning schedule, will it say in my security center

"no antivirus found" i hope not, i dont want the computer to slow down...I want to SCAN BY MYSELF, remember i use AVG Free Edition 7.5

thank you!!!

I've used this software for years, very good AV product, low overhead and very customizable.

What I've done in the past is schedule the automatic scanning for a time that it shouldn't affect my use of the machine (like 3am M-Th).

That's what I'd do, I wouldn't disable the auto-scan but you should be able to disable it in the schedule of the scan.

Open the AVG Control Center, and go to the scheduler, and see if you can change the scheduling of your auto scan. The free version doesn't provide a whole lot of options for changing the scheduling options so you may not.

When you first install AVG it asks whether you want to perform daily scans, leave this option unchecked.
You can't,only in AVG pro you can change the settings,they want us to get the paid version.
open up the AVG control center then click scheduler then click scheduler tasks then test in basic mode(or something like that) u double click that, then uncheck the box and it should be fine now. gl
