Hi,


I'm trying to schedule scanning mapped drives using Defender via the command prompt and task scheduler.


The command i'm using is:


"C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Platform\4.18.2005.5-0\MpCmdRun.exe" -Scan -ScanType 3 -File "E:\Archive"


I'm getting the following error when trying to scan


Scan starting...

CmdTool: Failed with hr = 0x80508023. Check C:\Users\uoh0079\AppData\Local\Temp\MpCmdRun.log for more information


and the log file says:




MpCmdRun: Command Line: "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Platform\4.18.2005.5-0\MpCmdRun.exe" -Scan -ScanType 3 -File "E:\Archive"

I can scan the C drive using the same command and i can also scan the E drive using the GUI. I have access to the drive, so don't think it's permissions. Can anyone suggest what i can try to get this work?
