Since Kaspersky on my PC's have started upgrading themselves from Security Cloud to Kaspersky Plus they have all started showing pop-ups relating to what appears to be a new feature, "PC Speed Up". This would be OK if I could turn that feature off (I don't particularly want it) or could permanently ignore the pop-ups (which I don't want at all).
Looking at the pop-up, we have "View" or "Remind me later". There is no option to have it stop bothering me and I've never seen it time out. Within the settings themselves, again, no option to turn this check / feature off.
If I allow Kaspersky to do what it wants here the pop-up goes away for a couple of days before coming back with apparently the same (or if not, very similar) issues. I am not convinced this feature works as intended but ignoring that it should at least have the option to turn it off.
Personally I find this moderately annoying (I didn't ask for it and cannot stop it) but I have elderly relatives on my multi-user plan who panic every time something like this happens unexpectedly.
Has anyone found out how to turn this off ? I've gone through all the settings I can find but this obscure form of repetative torture seems to have been baked in.

Agreed - since the last update I keep getting hounded by these notifications. It is not acceptable that the only way to stop it at the moment is to disable drive scanning. I hope this is truly a bug and not someone’s idea of what people want - I want my AV to do its job silently in the background and not keep insisting I close notifcation windows - it doesn’t even time out - every time I do something on my PC.
Every update I get seems to add more things I don’t want - password protection and uniqueness checking are the latest and I’m sure the installer / upgrader ignores my preferences because they keep coming back.

"PC Speed Up" pop-ups are unwanted and cannot be turned off in Kaspersky Plus (was Security Cloud).
in Kaspersky: Basic, Standard, Plus, Premium
