Once VIPRE is installed, you'll want to run an initial scan to ensure your Mac is free from viruses and malware.

Why run a Quick Scan?

A manual Quick Scan is the fastest and easiest way to check your Mac for potentially dangerous apps and malicious content.

Run a manual Quick Scan
  1. Click Scan Now, then click Quick Scan
    VIPRE will scan your Mac for potential threats. The amount of time the scan takes depends on how many files you have on your Mac.
    At the end of the scan, you will be presented with either a Scan Report or a No Threats Found screen.

Next, we can review the results of your first scan.
