How to scan for virus on a file or disk

Thread needs solution

Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office Build 40252.

How do I scan a disk or file? I have a micro SD card I want to scan tonight, but I can't see where to do that. I've had the same question when I want to scan a file. I know scanning is real time, but sometimes I want to do it when I want to.

Nancy, from what I understand, there is no direct option to scan specific drives, files or folders as you can with standard antivirus applications!

The default option for Acronis Cyber Protect is 'Smart on-access' for Realtime protection which then would come into play if you opened your SD card in Explorer and looked at the contents, otherwise, you would need to click on the Protection option to run a Full Scan of the whole PC and connected drives.
