By default WD is scheduled for 2.0 AM, but my PC is never ON at that time and
so WD will never scan. Why?
 
All you have to do is to reset the time of the scheduled scan to a time when
your computer is normally on.

maybe WD thinks most computers stay on and that is why it is a default.
Just change the setting that fits your needs.

Have you observed this as a fact? If you turn on your PC in the morning,
and some hour or so later take a look at Windows Defender, what's the time
of the last scan?
