Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Program

I need help desperately with something. I am trying to set task scheduler in windows to run mrt at a certain time each week. What I am trying to do is set mrt to auto start and scan without me having to do anything. I need to do this for work because there are about 15 pc's that need to run the program when no one is there including me. What I have been trying is setting a task with this command C:\windows\system32\mrt.exe /F , But all it does is bring up the screen to click next to start a full scan. Can anyone help me set task scheduler to auto start mrt to scan the pc? Any help I would appreciate.

Have you tried adding the /Q switch to it? Quite Mode

Hi! Do you know if quiet mode runs a full scan and cleans anything found?

I haven't tried the switches, but it appears that you can use /Q /F:Y
