5.1 Profile manager
Profile manager is used in two places within ESET Smart Security in the On-demand computer scan section and in
the Update section.
Computer scan
Your preferred scan parameters can be saved for future scanning. We recommend that you create a different profile
(with various scan targets, scan methods and other parameters) for each regularly used scan.
To create a new profile, open the Advanced setup window (F5) and click Computer > Antivirus and antispyware >
On-demand computer scan > Profiles.... The Configuration profiles window includes the Selected profile drop-down
menu that lists existing scan profiles and the option to create a new one. To help you create a scan profile to fit your
needs, see the ThreatSense engine parameters setup section for a description of each parameter of the scan setup.
Example: Suppose that you want to create your own scan profile and the Smart scan configuration is partially
suitable, but you don’t want to scan runtime packers or potentially unsafe applications and you also want to apply
Strict cleaning. In the Configuration profiles window, click Add.... Enter the name of your new profile in the Profile
name field and select Smart scan from the Copy settings from profile drop-down menu. Adjust the remaining
parameters to meet your requirements and save your new profile.
Update
The profile editor in the Update setup section allows users to create new update profiles. Create and use your own
custom profiles (other than the default My profile) only if your computer uses multiple means to connect to update
servers.
For example, a laptop that normally connects to a local server (Mirror) in the local network but downloads updates
directly from ESET update servers when disconnected from the local network (business trip) might use two profiles:
the first one for connecting to the local server; the other one for connecting to ESET servers. Once these profiles are
configured, navigate to Tools > Scheduler and edit the update task parameters. Designate one profile as primary and
the other as secondary.
Selected profile The currently used update profile. To change it, choose a profile from the drop-down menu.
Add... Create new update profiles.
The bottom part of the window lists existing profiles.
