How can I run Webroot on an external hard drive?
Are you asking how to literally run Webroot on an external drive or how to scan the external drive with webroot?
Yes, Scan my external drive. Webroot is on my computer and I have a external drive that I use for backup. Yesterday, webroot found a virus on my computer just after I had backed up to my external drive.
Open windows explorer with the extrernal drive plugged in, and right click the external drive and click scan with webroot.

Thanks!  That was quick and easy :)  

Hopefully, it caught everything, as I was sharing the external HD from an old Win 7 PC and my Win 10 PC.
