2. In the left part of the window, select the required task in the Scan (Full Scan, Critical Areas Scan, Custom Scan, or Vulnerability Scan) section.
3. In the Run mode section, click the Settings button for the task selected.
4. In the window that opens, on the Run mode tab, in the User account section, check the  Run task as box. Specify the user name and password.
