Hi there, Since a few days, I'm not able to launch the secured navigation. I have the message "impossible to launch the secure navigation". I restart my computer a few times but the problem remains the same. Does anyone has the same issue or can help resolve this problem ? My computer is running under W11. Thanks for your feedback JD

Hello everyone, I’d like to report a reproducible issue with Kaspersky VPN Secure Connection (App Store version 3.5.0, build 30500.79.14444486) on macOS 26.0.1 (Tahoe). The application freezes immediately upon launch and remains unresponsive until forcibly terminated. Observed behaviour After launching, the ksec_app process becomes stuck in a waiting state, as seen in macOS diagnostic reports: This means the app is attempting to connect to a non-existent or unresponsive XPC helper service (com.kaspersky.ksec.bl.resolver), resulting in a permanent hang. Technical background The App Store build registers an internal XPC service com.kaspersky.ksec.bl.resolver. On macOS 26 (Tahoe), Apple introduced persistent sandbox XPC restoration. Even if the related container or plist is deleted, launchd automatically restores the entry at next boot. Since the restored service no longer responds, the VPN UI (ksec_app) hangs on the XPC handshake stage and never completes initialisation. Workaround (confirmed functional) Quit the app completely: Remove the stuck resolver: Delete the sandbox containers: In Finder → Go → Go to Folder… → ~/Library/Containers/ Delete the folder com.kaspersky.ksec.bl.resolver manually, then empty the Trash. Relaunch the VPN. It starts and connects normally after that. (Optional: to prevent macOS from recreating the broken resolver after reboot, create an empty dummy file /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.kaspersky.ksec.bl.resolver.plist with no permissions.) Expected behaviour VPN should initialise its XPC connection dynamically on launch, without relying on persistent system registration that may be invalidated by macOS sandbox changes. Environment Component Version macOS 26.0.1 (Tahoe, build 25A362) Hardware MacBook Pro 16,1 – Intel i9 VPN 3.5.0 (App Store build) Distribution Mac App Store Reproducible Always, after restart Summary This appears to be a compatibility issue between the App Store build and macOS 26’s updated XPC sandbox behaviour. Manual cleanup and deregistration of com.kaspersky.ksec.bl.resolver restores normal functionality. Please forward this to the Mac development team for verification and patching. Best regards, M.

Hello everyone, I would like to report a reproducible issue with Kaspersky Password Manager (App Store version 10.3.1) on macOS 26.0.1 (Tahoe, build 25A362). The application freezes immediately upon launch, showing no UI response until forcibly terminated. Observed behaviour After launching, the process kpm_app becomes stuck waiting for a blocked XPC port: This indicates that the app is trying to connect to an unresponsive or missing XPC helper service (com.kaspersky.kpm.bl.resolver), which never responds — resulting in a total freeze. Technical background The App Store build registers an internal XPC service com.kaspersky.kpm.bl.resolver. In macOS 26 (Tahoe), Apple introduced persistent sandbox XPC restoration: even after an uninstall or container cleanup, launchd automatically recreates the service entry on reboot. When that restored service doesn’t respond, kpm_app waits indefinitely on an XPC handshake during initialisation. Workaround (confirmed functional) Quit the app completely: Remove the broken resolver service: Delete the sandbox containers: In Finder → Go → Go to Folder… → ~/Library/Containers/ Delete the folder com.kaspersky.kpm.bl.resolver manually, then empty the Trash. Relaunch Kaspersky Password Manager. The app now starts and synchronises correctly. (Optional: create an empty file /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.kaspersky.kpm.bl.resolver.plist with zero permissions to prevent macOS from resurrecting the broken helper on next boot.) Expected behaviour The application should initialise its XPC connection dynamically during launch instead of relying on a persistent launchd registration that can become invalid in new macOS sandbox environments. Environment Component Version macOS 26.0.1 (Tahoe, build 25A362) Hardware MacBook Pro 16,1 – Intel i9 Password Manager 10.3.1 (App Store build) Distribution Mac App Store Reproducible Always, especially after restart Summary This appears to be a compatibility issue between the App Store sandbox and macOS 26’s updated XPC system. Removing or resetting the com.kaspersky.kpm.bl.resolver endpoint resolves the problem entirely. Please forward this to the macOS development team for validation and patching in the next release.

I'm trying to recover my keyboard, mouse, speakers, which aren't working after uninstalling kapersky. So i booted with kapersky rescue tool. But the tools option is just not showing I'm running windows 11 Please help, I've spent hours and hours on this with no luck this is 2024 kapersky rescue tool, the 2018 version was showing black screen on my laptop

Hello, Since two days ago I have seen that I can not start up the Battle.net application when Kaspersky is enabled. This has happened to other programs before, so I would usually add Battle.net to "Specify Trusted Applications" but this is where the second part of the issue happens. When I add the Battle.net launcher to the list, my Kaspersky would immediately crash. I have sent in a crash report when it happened, but I doubt that would help me with my immediate issue. I have run Windows update, Networking driver check and Kaspersky update but none have seemed to help. Could you please advise on what I can do to mitigate either part of this issue? Thank you.

How hard is it to give us an option to disable that very annoying popup? Your users have been suffering for years and have been asking for a way to get rid of the secure keyboard input popup while still having the feature ENABLED and working in the background, but things are the same even with your latest editions (Kaspersky Plus). I think whoever thought it was a smart idea to remind the user about it every single time shouldn't have the power to manage and develop your software. Im a paying customer since 2006 and I had to turn off this feature and live without it whenever it came out (it's definitely been 5+ years). I just moved to a new computer and I've been configuring my settings and guess I will still need to disable it and live without that feature for many years to come...

I found myself without a working keyboard or mouse after installing Kaspersky Free. LUCKILY, the mouse worked when I unplugged it since it's wired and wireless. I scoured the internet for a solution to my problem and quickly learned that has been an issue with Kaspersky since as early as 2016!? I saw that while keyboard input seemed, blocked, I was still able to communicate between PC and keyboard adjusting volume and opening calculator, for example. Moving forward, I tried uninstalling the devices multiple times and reinstalling them (after system restart), I tried modifying the registry, I tried running several different scans... ZERO luck. Then I thought, "Maybe disable Kaspersky?" Still nothing. I uninstalled, restarted, nothing. Windows troubleshoot was unable to fix my "driver error". I caved and called Kaspersky - this seemed promising since the rep sounded friendly! Alas, they told me the problem was not due to Kaspersky (I KNOW it was since that was the only significant change I made to my system), they could not help me and that I might need to contact Microsoft (ROFL, no)... Solution: Hold the shift key and restart the PC. Select a restore point from before installing Kaspersky. Wait about 10 minutes (will vary by system). Thanks for nothing, rep! ZERO effort. I hope you are shown this and not reprimanded, but at least LEARN to apply yourself to help customers. Call Ref #: 14316475

Hi, After installing Kaspersky I used quick scan after it my pc went black for 2/3 mins. Idk exactly. After that my pc restarted, but my mouse cursor disappeared even tho my mouse is on and same with my keyboard they both have rgb so I know that they are on, but aren't working. I can press any button, but it's not going to work. My mouse is Model O and the keyboard is Genesis Thor 150 After I saw this problem I thought maybe taking mouse usb and keyboards wire and putting them in would work, but nothing. Now I don't know what to do because I can't do anything I have another office mouse with a wire I put it in and still nothing the cursor just won't appear. I downloaded the best version of Kaspersky free trial please help me

I am not able to use expedia with secure keyboard. I am not able to type in the destinations under flight section as the system forces me to use Kaspersky secured keyboard for some reason! and that keyboard just doesn't work! Has anyone else faced this problem? even after disabling it from kaspersky privacy settings and restarting the browser, I am still struggling with this problem. Any solutions?

I'm trying to install kaspersky stander plus, once downloaded the installer do nothing. I have tried: Run as administrator Clean temp files Installed framework 4.8 Windows updates are up to date I dont know what else to do. The installer does not run on windows 10. The wizard to instal the antivirus does not appear.

windows 8.1 Kaspersy total security 21.3.10.391 (h) device used: Laptop. until a couple of weeks ago my virtual keyboard worked fine. now when I use it, it will not close down, it will only close when I shut down safe banking completely. I have tried using it in other browsers, firefox, chrome, brave, duckduckgo but that makes no difference. It is very annoying as it blocks the page I'm using when doing my banking.

My Windows version: WIndows10 22H2 (OS Build 19045.4651) Kaspersky PLUS 21.18.5.438 The problem: After the lastest Kaspersky PLUS's Application update, my On-screen Keyboard becomes bugged. You can see from the 2 screenshots, my mouse cursor was positioned at Number 0, but it counts as Number9. I have been using Kaspersky for many years, and I use On-screen Keyboard for many years, this bug never happened to me before.

quick scan dose not appear in the dropdown list of windows

So I have a Logitech-macro on my left mousebutton that I use in games and it worked fine before I installed kaspersky. Now whenever I'm ingame the macro does not work anymore, I've created exceptions for Logitech-GHUB and the game (Tarkov), but still the macro won't work. :(

Hallo! Habe soeben erstmals Kaspersky auf meinem Rechner installiert, der Grund war, dass am rechten unteren Bildschirmrand ein kleines quadratisches Fenster aufging mit der Meldung "quick driver update" - ich halte das für einen Virus oder sonstigen Trojaner oder Müll. Nach der Installation und vollständiger Systemprüfung erscheint das Fenster immer noch. Es lässt sich mit dem Task Manager unter "task beenden" wegklicken. Weiss jemand, was das "quick driver update" ist? - ein Virus, Trojaner, sonstwas?

Hi, I'm not sure wether this is the right forum or the right english term for it, but I have a problem with that little window that opens whenever I try to enter something into a searchbar. As seen in the screenshot, it completely blocks a large part underneath the searchbar for no apparent reason. A lot of the time it blocks auto completion or other stuff for several seconds, making the work process slower. I think I don't have to be reminded that the secure keyboard input is active everytime I want to enter something. Is there a means to have that box toggled off?

Dear KIS Community I don't know why KIS block Brave Browser every first time launch it. When start browsing, it is blocked. Second time of launch it I can browse. Moreover, If I exit my second times browser window then third times is not work too. Unless reopen it (4th). Error by the following action like this. Moreover, I can't find the solution of such this case over Google also. Please help. If the problem still exist, might not renew license. Really bored.

I had problems before i did uninstall the Kaspersky free edition of antivirus even with free removal tool from kasperksy.

I have tried several times to figure out how to set my Kaspersky Plus to launch upon startup. There are instructions out there on the internet, but in the "security" area, there are so many places...& cannot figure out which one to use. I always purchase Kaspersky products & have never had a problem with any, however this one is really confusing me. I think it important that the app launch upon startup, otherwise how would I know if I'm protected. Thanks in advance!!!

I installed Kaspersky Total Security today, with a one year subscription. However, after it did a scan and restarted the computer, my keyboard and mouse have stopped responding. I tried other keyboards and mice, both wired and wireless as well but it did not work. But they still work on the biOS screen of the pc. I could not find a recovery boot option. So I would like to have help with this.

Hello. I just installed Kaspersky internet security and right away my Lenovo yoga 7i keyboard stopped working. Tried several methods before finding the registry method. Problem is, I follow all the steps, I delete the "klkbdflt" entry from the registry leaving only "kbdclass". I hit ok. Then when I close the registry, it comes back as it was: both entries appear in the UpperFilters. What do I do now? Please help, I need this machine for work. When I change it: When I open it again:

Does Kaspersky install its own mouse or keyboard drivers or change mouse/keyboard registry settings anymore? I read there were some issues regarding this in the past. And why would the software have to do any such thing? Excuse my ignorance but I’m a noob at antivirus. considering switching from Norton to Kaspersky. thank you

I have Kaspersky Premium. "Previous application launch failed". Apparently after few minutes when Windows boots, Kaspersky crashes and opens up again and displays this error. And it does the same several times again during the day. It's really annoying. I have contacted customer support and gave them all the necessary files (dump and system info files), It's been 3 weeks and I haven't heard anything back. I went so far as to fresh install the latest Windows 11 (ISO on Microsoft's website), but nothing changes. I do not have any cracked software and everything I installed are genuine and properly bought. I thought the issue may be due to system stability, so I did a memory test overnight and did some burn-in benchmarks and there are no errors. No other program on my system acts weirdly. I have also tried "Kaspersky removal tool" and did another installation of Kaspersky, but the issue persists. I am very close to uninstalling this for good, and I don't want to, I really like Kaspersky. Please help!
