- Thanks for your interest in SafetyScan, here are a few
- pointers to help you get started right away.
-
- 1.This message will only display itself the first time
- you start SafetyScan, if you need to read through it again,
- open the file "StartUp.txt" located in the folder that you
- installed SafetyScan.
-
- 2.When you close or "hide" the main screen, SafetyScan will
- reside in the System Tray, located in the lower right corner
- of your Taskbar next to the clock. You can access the main
- screen again by either double-clicking on the miniature
- magnifying glass icon or right-clicking and selecting "Open".
-
- 3.We recommend placing a shortcut to SafetyScan into your
- startup group so that it will start each time Windows does.
- To do this:
- a. Launch Explorer and find the file safescan.exe.
- b. Right click on the Windows 95 Start Button and select Open.
- c. Double Click on Programs, then double click on StartUp.
- d. With the right mouse button, drag the safescan.exe file
- into the StartUp window and select Create Shortcut Here.
- You may rename the shortcut to SafetyScan if you wish.
- e. SafetyScan will now be ready for action each time Windows
- starts.
-
- 4.The fist thing you should do with SafetyScan is perform a
- manual scan and clean of your drive. To do this:
- a. Click the "Scan Now" button. This will take a few seconds,
- depending on the size of your drive and the speed of your
- computer.
- b. When SafetyScan is done scanning, it will present you with
- a list of files that it has found that may be cleaned from
- your drive. Click the "Clean All" button and watch how much
- space SafetyScan recovers from your drive!
-
- 5.After you have performed your initial scan and clean, you may
- set SafetyScan to automatically scan and clean files on a
- regular basis. To do this:
- a. Click the Options Tab on the main screen
- b. If you are unfamiliar with file extensions, leave the
- "Files to scan for" options alone, otherwise select the
- extensions to search for.
- c. Adjust the "Scan Interval" by sliding it back and forth.
- This is the amount of time SafetyScan will wait in between
- automatic scans and cleans, 30 minutes is adequate.
- d. Select the "Hide" button. This hides SafetyScan in the
- System Tray (lower right corner of the screen next to the
- clock) so that it is out of your way, but still performing
- it's vital functions.
-
- 6.If you have SafetyScan configured to start at the beginning
- of each windows session, this message will not appear again,
- but SafetyScan will run and complete it's scheduled scans and
- cleans - keeping your drive free of error files automatically!
