I have set up a Defender scan using the Task Scheduler.
It is doing a quick scan every day.
Is a quick scan sufficient?..
I can see no way of changing this setting anyway in the Task Scheduler...
if I change in the Defender interface to full scan it just reverts to quick when the scheduled scan takes place.
I have read in another thread that someone's full scan is taking hours and hours so would not want that ..but do want to my PC secure.

Thanks

Yes, a full scan takes a loooooooooong time. If you do a quick scan daily and then occasionally do a full scan, I would think that would be sufficient.
