Hello @slaytorb 

 

No, how can it scan the system while it’s shutting down? Very odd question …..

Sorry but you can’t with WSA and I didn’t know you could with others. https://docs.webroot.com/us/en/home/wsa_pc_userguide/wsa_pc_userguide.htm#ScanningForMalware/ChangingScanSchedules.htm%3FTocPath%3DScanning%2520for%2520Malware%7C_____3

Thanks for responding. Where I used to work you could set a scan to run and then shut down the system. I can’t remember what the product was, though.  If you can’t do it on webroot, that’s fine.
