Definitely would not pause file antivirus. Perhaps I’ll look at an upgrade when it’s time to renew the license. Thanks again! Really appreciate the support you have provided.

Thanks! 1 - Standing by. 2 - Understood. Would be nice to have, though. 3 - I wouldn’t, but the option is there.

Hello and happy new year! Thanks for all of the above information! Glad to hear all is working as intended. I would certainly appreciate some notification (i.e. either something in the log and/or perhaps “Game Mode” displayed when hovering over the task bar icon), so I look forward to additional information regarding that investigation. I am running Kaspersky Internet Security, and I do not believe this application has a “Do not disturb” option. I only see “Pause File Anti-Virus” as something I can manually trigger. Is there anything analogous to “Do not disturb” in KIS? Thanks again!

I found a way to revert back to 21H1, but still no notifications. Can anyone share what it looks like both in the logs, and onscreen when the notification is working? I simply don’t know if this is a notification issue or if gaming mode is failing to engage.

If it helps, I am running Windows 10 Pro and I recently installed the 21H2 update. As a troubleshooting step, I investigated uninstalling the update, but I am unable to do so. I am curious whether @Xardas has 21H2 installed as well. If there is any other information I can provide that would help troubleshoot, please let me know.

Thanks for the response. Standing by!

Hello, I am using Kaspersky Internet Security 21.3.10.391 (g) and I have what appears to be the same problem. I don’t think Game mode is activating across a number of games and I am definitely not receiving onscreen notifications or log entries indicating so. I have looked at the settings recommended in this thread and elsewhere, but I have not been able to get game mode to function. I realize it’s a different product, so if you recommend I start a separate thread or support ticket, please let me know.
