In Windows 8.1, we can instruct Windows Defender to perform a custom scan, via command line, like this:
MpCmdRun -Scan -ScanType 3 -File "D:\My Personal Docs"
Can the same be done with network locations (UNC paths), like this?
MpCmdRun -Scan -ScanType 3 -File "\\NetworkShare\Shared Office Docs"
I don't have access to a Windows 8.1 machine at the moment which is why I'm asking here. Hopefully someone already knows or can try it.
I just checked it with my network drive--an Ubuntu Server running a Samba share-- and it didn't work: Image 1, Image 2. It failed with error: 0x80508023.
