Hi, from the demo I've tried it was possible to set up a schedule to scan your computer at any time of the day or night, possibly several days or nights. Not sure about external devices though since I only told it to do a brief scan of my C drive. Anyway I wasn't keen on the performance of the programme so decided to uninstall it and rely on Avast.
