    The time to complete of scan depends on many factors such as the size of your disk , type of your disk, applications you are running and so on. In case the scan is still in progress, then you don't have to be worry and just have to wait for the scan to be completed. Scan is slower on HDD compare to SSD.
    Take a note that you are able to use your system normally when scan is in progress and you will get notification when it completed. Let it runs and complete the scan and tell us about the result.
