Q1. By default, they are not being scanned.
To learn more about what files are being scanned:
https://support.secureaplus.com/how-do-i-include-files-for-scanning/

Q2. After first installed, SecureAPlus will collect the hash of the files, and add them to the whitelist.

Q3. Upon completion of the initial full system scan, where SecureAPlus collects the hashes and add them to the whitelist, it will send this list of hashes to the server.
If any of the hashes are identified as viruses by the server, it will notify the client.

Q4. Yes, Windows updates still be able to perform without switching to automatic mode.
