When the scanner detects a threat, Endpoint Security might prompt you for input to continue, depending on how settings are configured.

Note
Windows 8 and 10 use toast notifications — messages that pop up to notify you of both alerts and prompts. Click the toast notification to display the notification in Desktop mode.

Task

From the On-Access Scan page, select options to manage threat detections.

Note
You can reopen the scan page to manage detections at any time.

The on-access scan detection list is cleared when the Endpoint Security service restarts or the system reboots.
