AlienAutopsy Please help :(

Hi,

i have an X51 Alienware computer.

i am running windows 8

my problem with alienautopsy is that i can't stop it from scanning and notifying me with stuff.

i like its health checks but i want to do that on my own time, i have disabled all that seems relevant but nothing is stopping it, i don't know how to disable it from startup because i can't see it in startup, even if i manually close the program, an hour or 2 later when i'm playing i find that it's on and scanning stuff or telling me about windows updates or whatever.

please please help 

mine is version 3..5.6

Open the Alien Autopsy, there's a grey "button" that says Notifications.


Scroll down and you will find another button called: "Additional Tools", look for Settings; There's one that says Hardware Scan.

You can disable it completely on that page, or have it run daily, weekly or monthly.

Let me know if this helps you out.

Hi,

i unfortunately don't see the grey button you have mentioned.

in picture 1 this is my main screen and i see no grey button there, only settings.

when i press settings i get the screen in picture 2 which has a notification tab which is all about how i'm notified. i actually DONT want it to scan, it's not like i want it to scan and not notify me.

the other tab called checkup has an option to enable scheduled scan which i have unticked. it still scans with a mind and a preference of its own.

I'm taking a stab in the dark but if you select schedule hardware scan would that not solve your issue?

nope :(

enabling or disabling the schedule scan does not stop it from randomly popping up and scanning and notifying with the findings.
