how to i set weboot antivirus to automatically initiate scan when i insert any removable media?

[vikyy17]

i recently purchased webroot secure anywhere antivirus. im really happy with its light weight without sacrificing protection. but i observed when i plug in any usb webroot does not scan it. the usb shield is on yet why doesn't it scan it automatically? wouldn't this be a problem if the pendrive is virus infected?

It scans when you attempt to open or run a file that's on on the USB drive.

It's only when you attempt to run or open an infected file that there's any risk, so no need for the AV to scan before then.
