Performance analyzer for Microsoft Defender Antivirus - ScanType Info
Just started looking into the use of this tool to troubleshoot some performance issues we are seeing with some devices becoming unusable during full scans.
It looks great and is returning some good info but it would be good to have a reference of what the different "ScanTypes" are and how they differ?
So far I can see
UfsFileScan
StreamScan
OnDemandScan
Official docs seem to have no info - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/security/defender-endpoint/tune-performance-defender-antivirus?view=o365-worldwide
The comments in this thread at launch seem to suggest this info would be added - https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-defender-for-endpoint/announcing-performance-analyzer-for-microsoft-defender-antivirus/ba-p/2713911
But still nothing?
Anyone else used this tool successfully?
