Where is the rootkit scanning option in 1.86 version?

Now, I can not run rootkit scan anymore, as Full System scan takes almost ten hours.
Thank you F-Secure, you're doing it wrong.

Then, I think, it'll take a lot shorter time.
And, from importance, does archive scanning do any good? I mean, the antivirus will scan archive on demand(in the opening), so what's the point of archive scanning?0 Like -
Protection wise it is sufficient to scan the files in the archive only when they are accessed and this way preventing them on acting on your system. Scanning archives on demand is still useful in certain sceanrios, such as having a possibility to scan larger amount of downloaded archives for example.

Alternatively, you can use Hitman pro cloud scanning for rootkit scanning.
