Hello @Voi, Welcome.
Please see How to save an application license before reinstalling the operating system?

Hi @Wallaby53,
wir haben da die selben Bedenken.
Bei Registry-Optimierern empfehle ich schon seit Ewigkeiten, nur das ändern zu lassen, wovon man selbst etwas versteht.
Hier kann man das (wie Du festgestellt hast) nicht beurteilen. Es gibt keine nähere Erklärung, die Korrektur wird ohne weitere Rückfrage ausgeführt. Weder gibt es ein Protokoll der Änderungen, noch die Möglichkeit zum Rückgängig machen.
Für Standardsysteme von Standardusern sicher geeignet und sinnvoll. Für erfahrene User und deren Systeme wahrscheinlich nicht schädlich, aber zu undurchsichtig.

Hello @skn8700, welcome.

All Kaspersky products for home users include protection against ransomware, so does KTS.

However, there is almost no ransomware that becomes active without any action on the part of the user. So it is also up to you to prevent an infection. Always think for a few seconds before opening an unknown object. Does it come from a trustworthy sender? Does it ask for additional rights?
This is how you can unburden your AV. None of them is 100% perfect.

Hi @Wallaby53,
Dein Kasperskyprodukt sorgt selbst für die optimale Startreihenfolge.
Die ersten Systemtreiber werden frühestmöglich geladen, exakt: sobald Windows das erlaubt. Sie laufen mit Systemrechten und können dadurch die noch zu ladenden Windowskomponenten, Anwendersoftware und deren Treiber überwachen und zur Not blockieren.
Was erst relativ spät geladen wird ist die Benutzeroberfläche, die dann auch das Icon im Systray bereitstellt. Der Schutz ist jedoch schon vor dem Laden des GUI aktiv.
Ich bin mir sicher, dass die Entwickler in Sachen "frühes Laden" schon alles herausgeholt haben. Gleich nach dem BIOS geht leider nicht, ein wenig Windows wird benötigt. Eine Verbesserung eines AVs per "Optimierungstipps" sehe ich nicht, eher das Gegenteil.

Hello @EvilScorbunny, Welcome.

The latest versions of Kaspersky software (21.8.5.452) now accept a KTS (Kaspersky Total Security) key if at least patch "a" is installed.
Your KTS becomes a 'Kaspersky Plus', but without the unlimited VPN data volume included with the 'Plus'. You get everything that the KTS had, but no more.
There will be no automatic upgrade, you will have to install it manually.

Hello @Tribal Cash,

can you please right click on the KTS shortcut and check its properties?

In the properties window you should see the option 'Other icon' (or similar). Click on it.
Is 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Kaspersky Lab\Kaspersky 21.3\avpui.exe' displayed in the next window above?

(The following picture is from a German Win7. Maybe it will help you anyway).
 
 

Hello @Zero,
the option is indeed placed a bit unfortunate. In the future this will be changed.
Go to 'Settings->Performance settings->PC resource consumption' and scroll down.
 

Hi @diwand,
"Es gab dann eine Fehlermeldung" ist natürlich etwas dünn.
Falls es eine Meldung des Browsers (z. B. 404) war, hatte der zuständige Provider die Seite eventuell schon entfernt, oder Dein Browser/DNS-Provider hat sie blockiert.
War es eine Meldung der KTS, müsstest Du einen Eintrag in den Berichten finden, vorzugsweise Web-AV.
Der reine Aufruf einer Phishingseite ist aber in der Regel noch nicht gefährlich. Erst wenn Du dort Daten eingibst (nachgemachte Bankingseite, falsches Onlinestore-Login,...) solltest Du weitere Schritte unternehmen.
Da Deine KTS keinen weiteren Alarm von sich gegeben hat gehe ich davon aus, dass der Aufruf folgenlos blieb.
Eine vollständige Untersuchung und das Achten auf "seltsames Verhalten" in den nächten Tagen ist aber nie ein Fehler.

Hello @Raul1979,
You can specify an IP range according to CIDR.
XXX.0.0.0 to XXX.255.255.255 corresponds to XXX.0.0.0/8.

Hi @steve33,

You can enter a so-called 'reserve code', which will automatically activate after the license expires. However, there have been rare reports that the actually reliable procedure did not work.

Since you are changing the product at the same time, I would personally enter the key only after the KIS license has expired. This way it is one process less (for the activation).

Hello @Nishan, Welcome.
Have you already uploaded the file to VirusTotal or a similar site?
It is possible that Kaspersky is right and Zemana reports a false positive.
Which file is reported as infected?

Hello @iWoodGames, Welcome.
Kaspersky uses some techniques that make a scan faster and faster over time (iSwift, iChecker, Scan only new and changed files,...). This also explains the difference in the number of scanned files.
Purely theoretically, a scan duration in the range of seconds is possible.

What worries me a bit is the lack of internet access. This is also needed for a deeper scan.
Does the problem still exist?
Can you give us some more information about it?
Does the connection work when you temporarily disable Total Security (tray menu)?
One thing I would like to say: if the scan finds nothing, the system should be safe.

Hello @gbp4ever, welcome.
I think on your Vizio TV can be installed an OpenVPN client (please check yourself!).
Then you can establish a VPN connection with the Kaspersky data.

This does not apply to the Free version.

Hello @Choc, Welcome.

For the new Kaspersky the GUI has been changed.

Please go to 'Settings->Essential protection->Safe browsing'.
On the page at the bottom open the 'Advanced settings', then you can disable the URL Advisor.
 

Hi @astor27,
ein Changelog nur für die Free gibt es nicht.
Für alle Produkte der MR8 gilt Folgendes:

Hello @Bmuzammil, Welcome.

From a security point of view, there is nothing wrong with spaces.
A problem arises only during processing, because there is not only one space character. In addition to the standard (U+0020), others are common, especially in word processing (U+00A0, U+2007, U+2008).

There is also a problem if you work in a shell and have to pass the space as part of a password or path. Then you have to enter e.g. '%20' or '\ ' instead of ' '.

For these reasons many manufacturers (hardware and software) do not allow blanks.

Hi @roland666,
der Monitor kann nur das darstellen, was das Gerät preisgibt. Windows-Rechner sind da etwas gesprächiger als Androiden.
Dein Beispiel identifiziert sich nur als chinesischer WiFi-Chip, ein Gerätename wird scheinbar nicht übertragen.
Es könnte ein xiaomi Smartphone sein, aber genausogut ein Smart-TV.
Verrät Dir der Windows-Explorer (Netzwerk->Geräte) oder der Router mehr?

Hello @ibrahimaswadeh,

from time to time there are program improvements or bug fixes that are delivered as a patch together with the database update.
Your product has now received the latest patch 'A'.

Hello @Sebastian.EP, Welcome.

Can you please post a screenshot of the message?

I suspect that everything is fine with the VPN server, but you are contacting a destination without (http) or with questionable (https) certificate.
Does it work without VPN?

Hello @Bob_Isback, Welcome.

In the settings you will find an option to create an icon on the desktop.
Settings->Privacy settings->Safe Money->Additional'.
I hope this will help you to use it.
 

Hello @splinter, Welcome.

I can answer one of your questions:
In the Application Manager (apart from some standard programs) only those are listed which have already been started and examined. You have noticed that correctly.
But you can add programs manually, so rules can be created before the first start.
Open 'Manage Applications' and right-click on the group you want to add the program to (moving it later is also possible). After 'Add application to Group' you can search and add your program.
 
 

Hello @rfhaney, Welcome.
You can reach all three options by other means.
1. The bell icon indicates that there is a message. You can also view this by clicking on 'Details' in the main window and then 'News'.
2. gear icon for the settings -> see tray menu 'Settings'.
3. headset (support) -> see tray menu 'Support'.
 

Hello @Kasperov,

what you are observing is the active real-time protection of KIS.
Defender opens files, creates temporary files and eventually calls subroutines (e.g. to unzip files). File-AV and the program control of KIS of course investigate what is going on.

In KIS you can create exceptions for other AV programs so that their activity or access to the file system is not monitored.
(The image is from Kaspersky Standard, but the options are also included in KIS.)
