I downloaded Kaspersky antivirus on my widows 10 PC and ever since then I have been unable to install it on the the PC. when I try to launch the installation wizard, it loads and stops. Has happened several times and getting me frustrated. I need help from the Gurus here. Thanks

Many thanks for your reply. I checked the system in the system configuration and dicovered that it das RAID0 and not RAID1 as I mentioned. I used your custom KRD and the "Tools" button (left to "Quarantine") was visible and active, so I could run the "USB Recover Tool" that eliminated Kaspersky drivers from 3 registry entries. After restarting the PC (without KRD) I was able to login to windows as the keboard was now enabled. No problems with RAID. So the keyboard problem is solved now :-). Now I run into the next problem as my home network is not visible anymore and I cannot connect to the internet. So I rolled back the KTS changes using the kavremover utility. After restarting the PC I still could not reach or restore the home network using windows tools. As the next step I moved all oem*.inf files containing the word "Kaspersky" together with their corresponding *.pnf file from "C:\Windows\INF" to another directoy and restarted windows. But there is still no network and no internet connection. Because everything worked well before installing KTS, it seems that the kavremover utility has not rolled back everything. What could I do to restore the network functionality as it was? I'll send you the traces in the next step.

You can rollback KTS changes by kavremover utility https://support.kaspersky.com/common/uninstall/1464. But you can’t login and accordingly you can’t run kavremover. You can restore keyboard by KRD https://support.kaspersky.com/14221. But KRD don’t support your RAID. Please try this custom KRD http://devbuilds.kaspersky-labs.com/KRD/2018/isw/krd_isw.iso. Run KRD with “trace” parameter https://support.kaspersky.com/14223 and send traces anyway.

RAID1 was preinstalled by Dell. I never touched it. My problem is that the keyboard was disabled during the KTS installation and I cannot login to Windows. Is it possible to delete the KTS entries from registry and rollback the changes made by KTS during its installation?

Hello all, Quick question, is there anyway at all collapse the kaspersky context menu items, either within the application settings, apart from the obvious solution of deleting the values within the Registry Shell? Many thanks in advance!

I run Windows 10 Home version 1909 OS Build 18363.592. I’ve just downloaded and installed the NEW Microsoft Edge (based on Chromium, but not called Chromium Edge). Running Safe Money through Safe Money window, and it still reverts to Internet Explorer 11. I did some web forum searches, and even on this forum, going back to at least 2017, the problem of Safe Money running through IE was evident, with no clear solution. So, either MS won’t allow it or Kaspersky have not resolved it. However, based on the following:- “Microsoft Edge browser is not supported on Microsoft Windows 10 operational systems later than version 1803” “With the update to version 21.х.х.х, Kaspersky programs will stop supporting Microsoft Edge in the following components: Safe Money Protection for data entered on the computer keyboard” Considering that Edge/New Edge are the default Browsers of Windows, and my purchase of KIS was based partly on the fact that it was designed to run in a Windows environment, I am pretty annoyed with Kaspersky. Note1, when KIS has an issue starting any browser the user may have configured, it reverts to the system default browser, atm, (for you) is IE the system default browser? Note2, if you haven’t done so already, please run a KIS software compatability check? Re Note 1 Is the ‘system default browser’ different to the default app choice browser in settings? Sorry, not too technically minded! Re Note 2 from the list of incompatibles, there are only 2 listed that I can note: Windows Defender (but that is now superceded by KIS, and ‘Update for Windows’ - I have Windows 10 Update Assistant on the system. Beyond this, and pending going to Technical Support as you advise, which I can’t do now, I am at a loss. But, I know I am not the first to have this problem. Thanks

Hello @shaunm1963, Welcome back! The advice from Kaspersky is confusing😖 , atm, they say: Limitations in Kaspersky programs version 20.х.х.х The Microsoft Edge browser is not supported on Microsoft Windows 10 operational systems later than version 1803 (RS4). Limitations in Kaspersky programs version 21.х.х.х With the update to version 21.х.х.х, Kaspersky programs will stop supporting Microsoft Edge in the following components: Safe Money Protection for data entered on the computer keyboard However, as we’ve already established, from Kaspersky communications and from posters, e.g. @Ylive- Kaspersky employee, Kaspersky will be supporting Chromium Edge🤔 Generally regarding "Website opened in another Protected Browser" message when opening Safe Money in Microsoft Edge” Specifically, regarding “Failed to run Protected Browser. Reason: Unexpected error starting Protected Browser. Error code: 0x80000046.” ➡ Please contact Technical Support, they will need a GSi & Windows Logs, and may need traces, run as the issue is replicated, they will guide you with the traces collection. Please let us know their solution when it’s available? Note1, when KIS has an issue starting any browser the user may have configured, it reverts to the system default browser, atm, (for you) is IE the system default browser? Note2, if you haven’t done so already, please run a KIS software compatability check? Please let me know? Thank you🙏

That worked from the CMD line if i manually placed the files in the directory. Now its up to me to figure out how to get the deploy software to move it all. Thanks for the quick assist, and solution.

Hi @FLOOD & @Anton Mefodys, Thanks for the super quick reply! Thinking about, it only happens whenever you are Signing up for a new account on a website When you go to login into an account with credentials that are saved into the KPM vault, but the credentials or values entered on the website are different to that of the ones that are saved in KPM vault If there is no entry saved at all already within the KPM-Vault I have also found, that when I click the “Cancel” command button on the popup, it will close and then re-open, cycling 2-3 times In answer to your questions Flood, Yes, (if entry is not already existing within the vault These are the only supported browsers I have tried; Chrome & Chromium (Edge) as well as Microsoft Edge, happens on all websites that have a credentials field/element, (as far as my testing went) Please see attached, I have not uploaded one for the “update new entry” as I was not able to recreate, if it does show again, I’ll take one and provide Yes I never choose the option to “save the entry” into the vault, as there is no option to change the entry/website name, account name or notes option. (Circled in yellow, within screenshot) Screenshot labelled “KPM Feature Disabled” details the inability to either automatically or manually login to an account using KPM if the annoying “AutoSave” feature is turned off. Hope that all provides a little more clarity and direction. Cheers Will

It has now been resolved by Revo Support (they were very quick in their reply too!) What I needed to do was add the Revo exe file to the exclusion list which, until now, I didn’t even know existed. Everything is now working as intended. Thank you very much for your fast response.

Just to be sure, can I launch tracing from custom tools and in the mean time take Procmon logs without change Self Defense on KSC policy? I had some issue after policy change so I'd avoid to change it.

Therefore is it possible to launch a ps1 file or the command must be directly write on the field? Thanks in advance

Hi, Is it possible to remotely execute powershell commands from KSC custom tools? I found this topic but it didn't help me: https://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?app=forums&module=forums&controller=topic&id=382442&tab=comments#comment-2751988 I need to launch some powershell commands, for example a software list like this: Get-ItemProperty HKLM:\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\* | Select-Object DisplayName, DisplayVersion, Publisher, InstallDate | Format-Table –AutoSize > D:\swlist.txt Other example, pending updates. $update = new-object -com Microsoft.update.Session $searcher = $update.CreateUpdateSearcher() $pending = $searcher.Search("IsInstalled=0") foreach($entry in $pending.Updates) { Write-host "Title: " $entry.Title Write-host "Downloaded? " $entry.IsDownloaded Write-host "Description: " $entry.Description foreach($category in $entry.Categories) { Write-host "Category: " $category.Name } Write-host " " } Thank you

Is it possible remotely launch Kavremover from KSC with a specific command about the product to uninstall? I found only login settings. Run the tool from the command line with the parameter: kavremvr.exe --password-for-uninstall:%PASSWORD% --MSIPARAM:KLLOGIN=%login%, where: %login% stands for the user name for the product) %password% stands for the password for the product

ello @releone, I must say, your English is much better than my Italian😉 , allow me to reply in English please - the fan on my laptop is dying, I'm doing all my work in 15 minute bursts. ➡ You have version 20.0.14.1085, bravo👏 How to find Kaspersky software name, version & patch, there’s several methods: [a] Open KIS, select 🎧Headset🎧 bottom left hand corner of application = Support window, shows: Operating system name, version & build, Database release date & time, KIS version & patch(x). [b] Windows Taskbar, hover 🐀mouse🐀over the Kaspersky shield, a tiny popup window displays: Kaspersky software name, version, patch(x), Databases release date & time. [c] Windows Taskbar, right click Kaspersky shield, select About, popup window shows Kaspersky software name, version & patch(x). [d] To revert to red & black shield, open [c] About window, on the ⌨ keyboard⌨ type keys: IDDQD Reboot the computer to apply the change. [e] USB scan, Esamina solo la root. Scan root folder only. This is entirely personal choice, it also depends on the backup size, time to run the scan, and if you're confident the contents of the drive (other than root) are completely clean. I've lost count of the times people I've helped say: "I lent my USB to a friend, he/she gave it back, now my computer is full of ransomware, malware, etc., etc.” (imo), if you do not know how “healthy” the contents of the USB are, first, always, do a Full scan, once you are 100% confident, any followup scans can be selecetd according to your requirements. Another ‘tip”, in all Kaspersky software applications, every window has a ❔ in the top right hand corner of the screen, (see image above ❔ circled red), selecting any ❔ will open a browser to a Kaspersky "Help" document, specific to the application screen. Please post back if there’s anything more I can do to help? Thank you🙏

Hello IrvZaritsky, Welcome! Is KIS configured to "launch" at computer startup? To confirm KIS is active (without you manually selecting KIS application), please reboot, after logging in, don't select KIS application at all, start Taskmanager, check KIS application status? --- Please also tell us: (1) Operating system full name x home/pro/beta? version? build? release? What Version of Windows Do I Have? (2) KIS (free or licensed? - see below for this question), version? patch(x)? x= letter How to find the version of your Kaspersky Lab product (3) Please post an image of the KIS dialogue box? Thanks so much. Kaspersky free has limitations, if we know the software in use we are able to provide more accurate analysis, information and solutions.

Hello @FLOOD , Thank you for your help, thankfully techinal support still trying to solve it and I am glad they are really trying :) I will share GSI files here any idea is welcomed as it can be something too small, like a command it is keep Rolling, I don’t know much about scripting so anything may small for you, may important detail for me missing. -A little detail just a little when that thing forces my pc to close, even pc closed it keeps working for a while, after few times doing that I got mad and closed it from the button when I turned back on, Windows started repairing itself- Well the thing is I tried the methods written at down -tried video capturing but however it endup not geting saved -Reseting computer and keeping files doesn’t solve -It is not from macro programs -It happened even when opera isn’t installed -It is not like emergency shutdown when cpu or gpu heat up -it is more like timed program things I think, it is looking like one of them because it is forcing pc to shutdown I see the “shutting down” letter on screen also it doesn’t let me write anything like i can’t do “shutdown -a” it lock my keyboard somehow

Hello @Nikiangel, ⚠ Regarding "why it is grey, why it doesn’t show how many things it blocked on the site, and why it doesn’t show the options private browsing, anti banner, onscreen keyboard when clicked", Kaspersky Protection Extension (KPE) is not working⚠ 🅰For KPE, there should never be multiple extensions/addons. 🅱 Is there a reason you're using KIS19? Your Topic is similar to Ladybeetle’s except, (for you), KPE is not working in multiple browsers, (imo), the best way to resolve this is as follows: 1Windows: C:\Windows\Temp delete everything in Temp, there may be a few files/folders requesting “Admin permission”, grant the permission, & there may be a few files/folders “In use”, select Skip. C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\Temp delete everything in Temp, there may be a few files/folders requesting “Admin permission”, grant the permission, & there may be a few files/folders “In use”, select Skip. 2Chrome C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\ copy folder Default to the Desktop. chrome://settings/reset run Chrome Reset & Cleanup - allow it to complete. Close Chrome, do not reopen atm. Windows, Programs & Features, uninstall Chrome. 3KIS - 1 Tools, Clean & Optimize, run Privacy Wizard, select all recommended and strongly recommended actions - allow the Privacy Wizard to complete. Windows, Programs & Features, uninstall KIS, save License information only Shutdown computer using full Shutdown, not Restart. Restart computer, login 4 KIS - 2 Download new KIS, apart from using a browser to download KIS do not have any browsers open atm. Install & configure KIS. Run KIS manual Database update - allow it to complete. Run KIS manual Full scan - allow it to complete. Open Chrome brower, check KPE version & colour? Open IE browser, check KPE version & colour? ❓ If Chrome / IE KPE grey problem persists😥 , let me know please? ❔ If Chrome/IE problem resolves👍, please let me know? Alternative to the above, if KIS is licensed, you may wish to contact Kaspersky Techical Support, the Support team will request a GSI & Windows Logs, images, full history & may request Traces run as the issue is replicated, they will guide you with the necessary steps. After the issue is logged you’ll receive an automated email with an INC+12digit reference number, you may continue to communicate with the Kaspersky Technical Team via reply email or by updating the INC in your MyKaspersky account. Thank you🙏

Maybe...and that’s one big MAYBE, what’s happening is that version 30 ?!? coming with Kaspersky internet security 20 ?!?, as for IE it’s the same gray Kaspersky shield gives these details: Name: Kaspersky Protection Publisher: Kaspersky Lab Type: Browser Helper Object Architecture: 32-bit and 64-bit Version: 30.253.92.0 File date: ‎Today, ‎January ‎8, ‎2020, ‏‎2 hours ago Date last accessed: ‎Today, ‎January ‎8, ‎2020, ‏‎2 minutes ago Class ID: Use count: 3 Block count: 1 File: ie_plugin.dll Folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Kaspersky Lab\Kaspersky Internet Security 20.0\x64\ieext However, why it is grey, why it doesn’t show how many things it blocked on the site, and why it doesn’t show the options private browsing, anti banner, onscreen keyboard when clicked, remains a mystery for me, and most likely for most of your customers. And another update from me, removed from chrome the version 30 and version 4...and disabled version 20. It seems I get the same functionality and protection like if the plugin is enabled (at least the banners and spam advertisements are missing, compared to another PC without Kaspersky) I can personally call it a good functionality, probably provided by KIS itself, but then do we need Kaspersky Protection plugin at all? You should agree it’s a mess.

I have set Kaspersky to Game Mode in order to prevent scans from happening while I am playing games in Full Screen Mode. I also have the scans Scheduled in the early mornings when I usually have my laptop turned on but I’m not usually playing. What I see happening very often is that the Quick Scan, Full Scan and Root Kit Scans are in progress after I shut down my games. It’s not that the games just quit and it started, I’ve seen the full scans at 80+% completed. Note that this doesn’t always cause problems with all of my games but it definitely does affect the performance on some of them. Why is this happening? Anyone else see this?

FLOOD Hi, Here's GSI report. you requested. Cleared KIS reports launch Adobe CC Desktop App sign in there after a while, click 'check for app updates' and it gets signed out. launched GSI then started scan my computer including Windows event logs here it is. check PM Do I need to export reports you mentioned however isn't it included in GSI? I don't know how to do that.

Could you write how this component is called in the Russian version? There is a program launch control, program activity control. Or is it another component?

Good day, @Pipspur! You can also install the 2019 version, there the virtual keyboard should be in black https://support.kaspersky.com/15101#block1

Hi Potzki You can add whitelist the site by adding it to the exclusions of the encrypted connection scanning of kaspersky. To do so: Open Kaspersky > Settings > Additional Go to Network Scroll down and look for Manage Exclusions Click on "Add" then enter: www.live.com.au Click on "Add" again to save the settings. Once done, re-launch your Outlook and check if the issue is still there. Let us know of the result. Regards,
