OK, browser cache cleared (Firefox) and temporary files deleted using Windows Utility tools. Computer restarted and nothing has really changed. By that I mean when I press the Windows logo key on my keyboard + R and type in service.msc there is no entry for Windows Update. In summary then, the situation as it stands at this moment is that: (a) I have no restore points. (b) Windows Update is not working (c) Many files over the past few days (.exe plus .swf and several others files not recorded by KIS although deleted by KIS) have simply disappeared. I am firmly of the opinion that the fault lies at the door of KIS as there is always a pop-up from KIS advising that files cannot be disinfected and are being deleted. It might be worth noting that no programmes have been manually update by me (including Adobe Flash) that would account for any of this. I make mention of this because swf files are associated with the latter mentioned.

Mac Book Pro 13” Early 2011 Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.6 KIS 20.0.0.82a.b FaceTime Version 4.9 (3080) Installed by default as part of the os. If the camera is blocked from the KIS privacy page and then FaceTime is opened the following: Attachment 1 If the Face Time App is then shut down, and the camera unblocked from the KIS privacy page: Attachment 2 Note in respect of Attachment 1 there is also a KIS banner that pops out from screen right saying the camera is blocked, i just wasn't quick enough to capture it in the screen shot. Additionally, if the camera is enabled and then disabled with FaceTime still active, the camera continues to work, but on the next opening of FaceTime it is again blocked.

Windows 10 Pro, V 1909, Build 18363.535 Latest update Child only has a profile on one machine No, there is no “error”, instead I am returned to the login screen without explanation. However, there are various status message that flash past. They go too quick to read properly. I believe I see obtaining authentication token, then redirecting… I could be mistaken, it goes so far. Latest version of the entire suite, including password manager, safe browsing, but not VPN. Premium. What do you mean authenticated account? It has *authentication*, that is what is failing. It does not appear to use an OAuth 2 solution, such as Google Account login. It has its own authentication solution that is specific to Mojang; e.g. cannot use MS Password. As the account is new, it’s never been tested before. Essentially, I cannot answer this question meaningfully. It may be an old issue, but the account is new, so I only just tried it. Do you mean in Kaspersky, or in Mojang? I don’t believe Mojang apply any age limits to Minecraft. It is a child under 13 in KSK.

Hi, Bboylubsko Thank you for KRT core files! KRT crashes because it can't connect to XServer display. And all other applications can't be started due to same problem. XServer can refuse connections to existing X display if hostname has been changing on Wi-Fi connection. Please, provide screenshot with results of following test: 1) Run terminal 2) Execute command - echo ${HOSTNAME} 3) Try to connect to problem Wi-Fi network (don't close terminal) 4) In terminal execute command again - echo ${HOSTNAME} 5) Make screenshot (press Prt Scr button on keyboard) If values of HOSTNAME is different on step 2 and step 4 try to execute command in terminal - echo ${HOSTNAME} > /proc/sys/kernel/hostname and try to start any graphical application (KRT for example).

Kaspersky AV 19.0.0.1088(f), Windows 10 Pro 64-bit, Real VNC® Server 5.3.2 (r19179) x64 Accessing my PC remotely using RealVNC, I made a change to AV settings and got the confirmation required popup and was annoyed to find that I couldn't click the "Continue" button from the remote client. Fortunately, I was just upstairs in the den, so coming down to use the keyboard and mouse wasn't the end of the world.

Thank you very much for trying to help, but I do not need it all. KPM is now set on a virtual machine and pick from there needed me the file. The most simple and quick solution. . .

Last night (it’s Eastern Time here) I uninstalled then installed KIS20. Taking me from 1088(k) to 1085(g). Doing so I bypassed the prompt to eliminate MB - leaving prompt with an unchecked box (as directed). Then went through the ‘Tools’ performing all maintenace items. Nothing was a show stopper. Then a Quick Scan followed by a Full Scan. Reports had no threats. (reference FLOOD above): 1> MSEdge and now Chrome. 2> They were yesterday but will go back and verify. When I did re-install I indicated to keep previous settings. I hope they were. 3> Yes. MSEdge still cannot allow me to login to AOL Email. Chrome does allow me. I’ll use Chrome - until all h*** breaks loose again. 4> I reset MSEdge last night. Chrome was just installed after all KIS20 scans were completed. Chrome is still holding in this am. MBAM conflicts - not sure what you are saying except I believe it was MB that directed me to ‘uncheck’ the option to eliminate what I believe was MB version 3.0 I noticed what is loaded is MB 4.0. Nevertheless I believe it was MB noted Kaspersky and MB had a current compatibility issue.

I would like to configure the KES 11 "Device Control" module but would like to use "Best Practice" or recommended methods so that I am not creating any issues. Can someone share screen shots of their settings or point me to a document. Specifically I want to control the USB ports on devices by limiting to an AD Group or User. But yet always allow some devices (Example had held scanner and Keyboard/mouse) for all users. Is there a Kaspersky service to assist us doing this? We are a MSA Plus customer.

Dear mastropizza, i am sorry but Upgrading the Agent without Permission from my Supervisor is no Option, especially when the other Computers are not affected by this Trouble. I am Managing the Agent via KSC 10 and this works fine too. Licenses are available too. But nontheless thank you for your quick Reply :) Regards Morgan

Hello @Amr Salameh, Welcome! You can get an activation code in a number of ways, depending on how your purchased your license: If you purchased a Kaspersky product in a Kaspersky online store, the activation code is sent to the email address you specified when making the purchase. If you purchased a Kaspersky product on a CD, you will find your activation code in the Quick Start Guide. If you purchased a license renewal card, see the code on the back of the card. If you experienced any activation code issues: If you bought the license via MyKaspersky account or the Kaspersky website: Contact Digital River's customer service department. Create a request via this web form. ➡ If Kaspersky Internet Security software was brought from a third party source you must contact them⬅ Thank you🙏 Reference: About activation codes for Kaspersky products

Thank you for the quick reply. Here are the asnwers : Windows 7 Home version 6.1 Version 20.0.14.1085 Yes the extension is enabled, but the icon wouldn’t show if it wasn’t enabled, right ? Free Yes all of them Waterfox, Firefox Nightly and Vivaldi Hope this helps

Many thanks again, I appreciate the support! 2 other ways to find version & patch: Thanks. Following the links you kindly supplied earlier, I had no problem finding that info. My point was merely that it should perhaps be (also) an item under Help/About… which is a more familiar location. do a quick check Those requirements are all fulfilled, and KAV was working just fine until last night; in fact it still is (database updates work etc.); the problem is “merely” the missing (in Device Mgr etc) Ethernet adapter… Update: I have now uninstalled, in the usual manner via the Control Panel, the “Kaspersky Secure Connection” application (but not yet the main application), and restarted as required. No problems encountered. And as expected, those “Data Escort” adapters are now no longer listed in Device Manager, Network Settings, etc. But this means there is now only WiFi left, no Ethernet adapter is listed at all. Scan for Hardware Changes still did not help; and the usual trick of un/reinstalling (the driver) can’t be used because the adapter (driver) is not listed in Device Mgr in the first place. I also wonder if un/re-installing the KAV main application would really help: Wouldn’t that just bring back those “Data Escort” adapters, but not the “normal” one? So, apart from Kaspersky applications, what is the proper method to get back into Device Mgr an adapter which Win10 does not see? (The hardware, cable, etc. are still ok, as demonstrated by the VPN connection which shortly did work when I still had “Secure Connection” installed.) Then there is still the Restore Point, but from what I heard and read, there is a real risk that it will mess WIn10 up even further. At the moment everything still works, at least as long as the WiFi connection is good enough (haven’t yet checked the bandwidth). Warning about not using KAVremover duly noted! Thanks! the [auto-update] process is flawed Indeed. Auto-download and notification are OK, but actual installation should not be happening without prior warning/prompt… Let me know if I’ve missed anything? Thanks. I think now that the “Secure Connection” component is gone, it’s a more general issue of how to re-introduce the Ethernet adapter to Win10, once it has lost sight of it… And as said, I’d rather not (yet) try the Restore Point... Further Update: I remembered (belatedly...) the “Show hidden devices” option of Device MGR and can now see the adapter (Realtek Gaming GbE Family Controller) in the Device Mgr, but with a “greyed out” icon, and Win10 says “Currently, this hardware device is not connected to the computer. (Code 45)”. So I cannot dis/enable it but could only uninstall it. (Which I don’t dare to do as I am not sure how to then re-install it.) I tried to update the driver, but after checking what is available (on the computer), Win10 then says that the best driver for the device is already installed...

Hello @alnor, You’re very welcome! 1803, 17134.829. Re the: “I know”, don’t worry, however, do a quick check of Kaspersky Free 2020, (which btw, from the info you’ve provided, is KAV version installed), just so you’re across the information for your opsys & KAV20. Re “ unable to find the KAV version from the GUI; there really should be an "About..." item under the Help (”?”) button” Open KAV, select Headset🎧 , Support window opens, KAV version & patch “should be” 4th line after Kaspersky Technical Support. 2 other ways to find version & patch: 1Windows Taskbar, hover m🐭 use over Kaspersky icon, floating information popup will provide Name, version, patch & Database release date. 2Windows Taskbar, right click Kaspersky icon, select “About”, window displays Product name, version, patch. 🛑 Turning off “Kaspersky Austomatic Updates” will not stop major patch distributions🛑 (imo), the process is flawed, there should be a setting (like Windows) that downloads the patch & allows the Kaspersky Customer the chocie of when to apply, that would at least stop people being caught off guard & give Kaspersky Customers the opportunity to apply the update in a controlled manner. ☢ KAV, BEFORE UNISTALLING☢ ⚠ Check & download new KAV installer⚠ reference: Checking for a newer version of the application. Log into your MyKaspersky account, check Licenses Tab, KAVF should be listed, check “Details”. Then uninstall KAV via Windows, Programs & Features. The unistall process will present a popup with six selections, save License information only, even if the license information is generic for KAVF⬅ ⛔ Do not use Kavremover, unless directed to do so⛔ KSDE x 2, interesting isn’t it🤔 , I’ve noticed this, atm, have not worked out if it’s another Kaspersky “as per design”, or reflective of failed major updates/patches, still testing. Bottom line: if you’re not using KSC-VPN, uninstall it & the adaptors, which you may as well do AFTER you’ve refreshed KAV, otherwise you’ll be doing it twice. (imo), you don’t need to use the sysrstpoint atm, but, it’s very good you have it👏 I think I’ve covered everything, except for Murphy’s Law, that’s the luck of the Irish, to be sure, to be sure😉 Let me know if I’ve missed anything? Thank you🙏

Hello FLOOD, many thanks for the quick reply, it’s much appreciated! Win10 version & build? Windows is still 1803 (Build 17134.829; I know) KAV version & patch? Thanks for those links! I had so far been unable to find the KAV version from the GUI; there really should be an "About..." item under the Help (”?”) button. The UI says the KAV version is 20.0.14.1085 (g). This is also the version seen in the Properties of avp.exe (dated 21.03.2019). But avp.com is dated 17.11.2019 (and has no version info in Properties). This may all still be the pre-update version. However, in the application folder I found a file verinfo.json (dated 09.12.2019) which says "build: "KAVKIS-20-MP0-20.0.21.1325", "version": "20.0.21.1325"" This is perhaps the version after the (failed) update? Create a System Restore Point. I do have a System Restore Point from a few days ago, but am reluctant to activate it, for fear it may mess up even more things… (As per Murphy’s Law, I am in the middle of some important and urgent work when all this happened...) Uninstall KAV. Will uninstalling from the ControlPanel/Programs etc be sufficient, or is there a special uninstaller I saw one [LINK REMOVED] but don't know if this is an "official" and up-to-date one). I create regular (daily/nightly) system restore points, especially around times when I know Windows & or Kaspersky are pushing major updates. That is of course good advice. The problem is that I had set Kaspersky AV to automatic updates, and then I do not get any advance warning. I always learn about these updates only when they have already happened, and a restart is requested. I know I can disable automatic updates, but it seems I will then not get any notification either when an update is available. Thanks again for your help! I’ll report back if/when/how I have solved the issue. BTW, should there really be two “Kaspersky Data Escort” Ethernet adapters (see first post), or is that a side effect of the failed update?

Welcome. Please download the Kaspersky Free English version , then uninstall your current version , reboot and install the EN version. Here is the download link https://www.kaspersky.com/free-antivirus You might have to change temporary your Windows keyboard or region settings.

Update: I left a PC encrypting a 512GB USB drive before I went away for a couple of days. The computer locked up, so I could do nothing with it. When I returned KTS was reporting that the encryption had failed. I was unable to access the drive until I removed it the re-inserted it. It has a file named Password Protected.kde (which is the name I configured). When I clicked on it KTS asked for the password, which I entered. This opened a window saying the drive needed to be formatted, which gave every indication that it was the standard Windows formatting, so I expected the whole drive to be re-formatted. Formatting was very quick. However, Windows Explorer then showed a new drive Removable Disk (Z:), size 488GB. I am able to read and write to that drive, and it appears to be encrypted. It would appear, therefore, that KTS has successfully encrypted to drive, after some indeterminate time, even though it reported that it had failed.

I had already checked the drive. It is formatted in exFAT. I am able to save files to it, so I don’t think there are any problems with it. Yesterday I ran ScanDisk to confirm no errors. I ran CrystalDiskMark to confirm the read/write speed. I also ran ChkDisk to confirm that it funtioned correctly. ChkDisk takes a long time to test 500GB so I stopped it before it had finished. I have just run a quick format on the drive, and I’ll run ChkDisk again to fully test it. I should also note that I experienced the same problem with another USB drive, which tends to suggest that it isn’t a hardware problem.

Is it safe to attach the log file here? does it contain any personal information or any information that hackers can use to get into my device? I have never uploaded to cloud. If cloud is required, please provide quick summary. I cannot read everything in the guide just to upload to cloud.

Hello @Nikolay arinchev Thanks for your quick response. The KES version is 11.0.0.6499 The KSC is 11. Exactly from where I have to do some tuning for the Honeywell handhold scanner? Thanks in Advance @Deadlock4400

Thank you for your quick response. The version is 1903 (OS Build 18362.476) I’ve had in on here for 3 years or so. I can’t remember how it was installed. Steps 2 and 3 sound too complex for me. Thank you for sharing; KIS 2016 Runs as 32 bit on 64 bit Windows 10 I don’t need to read that, I just was asking if that was the reason it ran hot because sometimes thats the problem. I have the Microsoft Windows Defender protection on but it uses no power and no memory, so I was wondering if the stats I gave you were high or if that is just how hot KIS runs. So if there is a way to get it to use less power then please let me know. Otherwise I’ll have to live with it.
