SCEP (FF replacement) Does it restart scans if computer is shut down prior to scan completion?

First I do apologize because this is obviously the wrong forum. It should be a forum for System Center Endpoint Protection, however that doesn't exist so this is as close as I can get.  We recently moved over to SCEP from FF.  I have noticed that the scans seem to be taking quite a while.  We scan at noon on Thursdays, and the scan is never completed by the time I shut down around 4:30 for the day.  What I would like to know is if my machine is shut down prior to the end of a scan, does it then restart the scan completely as if nothing had every been scanned (file 1 of XXX) or does it start from the point at which it had previously completed?

I've spent a fair amount of time trying to research this and can't find an official answer.  It *looks* to me like the answer is that it starts from scratch, but I'm a bit reluctant to declare that as an official answer because I hate being called a dumba** if I'm wrong. 

Thanks in Advance.
