Allow disabling scheduled scans if on battery power

[giantbender]

I have a laptop that is running MBAM. There is a scan that is scheduled to run once a day. I would prefer if that scan is only run when the laptop is connected to the charger.

 

My suggestion is an option to disable a scan on battery power. For example in the 'Edit Schedule' window there could be a check box in 'Frequency and Settings' that says 'Skip scan when on battery power (Laptops)' or something like that.

 

Thanks

This do not scan when on battery is an important issue for me. When my current license expires I am out unless something is done. I might as well turn MWB off on my laptop.

Thank you for your time and reporting this.
