Defender forgets I scanned

Thank you for replying

I don't have Defender installed on the XP side plus I rarely boot into XP as
this computer is for Vista beta test.
I have been booting to Vista only had to boot to XP to test a few things fro
AVG last week. Some of my AVG files are locked without access with the
install for Vista.

I didn't even have MSAS on XP as it really was only set up to prepare for
Vista.
I will see what happens tomorrow on booting.

OT:
I did notice my own restore points in Vista - volsnap.sys

Hopefully I can fix these with a fresh install on next release.

Ah, it was a long shot.

I think I have found the reason for Defender doing this on me.
I had UAC disabled but now I have an AV which works with my setup I enabled
UAC again which seems to have stopped Defender adding how many days each time
I boot. I am not too sure why but enabling UAC must have helped for some
reason.
