Changing the system tray icon, still works

[jonny quest]

Being a newer user of Kaspersky, I got a kick out of finding the ability to change the icon (link below). Just maybe a reminder for those who didn't know, as with myself ?

lol, yes, a little tweaking fun with Kaspersky ? As far as I could tell, no piggy sound on Windows 11. When did the pig use to oink, during an update, a notification, etc?

I also realized Kaspersky did adjust the Application icon off when switching to the K, which makes sense.

Hello @jonny quest,

1. When it hears the farmer say, "this one looks ready for the table"?, LOL! Notifications -> should be those that (you) would see in the Windows Notification centre - did you test with Eicar? 
2. Correct?

1. lol ?  Good idea to try an Eicar test. No sound, just Kaspersky pop up notifications. Windows notification was the normal sound when pausing Kaspersky and deleting the file.

I just posted a reply, but it wasn't saving, so I re-freshed my browser and now it's shown as hidden? How do I unhide it?

Only mods or admins can unhide posts.
In your quote there was a link too much.

Okay, thank you for taking care of it @Schulte ?

@Flood and Flood's wife Good idea as far as trying an Eicar test. Windows notification sound was the normal Windows sound.

And now, to complete the icon transformation ? I may change the green fill in, or change it back later. Just having a little fun on a Sunday ?

Hello @jonny quest, 

Sorry for the delay, Southern hemisphere:?

1. We'll test it when we get a chance, according to Kaspersky, it should work, Kaspersky have formally documented it for: M7 Hardware, software requirements -> W11 || How to enable notification sounds = 'pig squeals

Kaspersky do say: Notification sounds are not played in Microsoft Windows 10 - we have 2 W10 machines, with piggy squealing just fine. 

Additional (just for completeness) How to configure the application icon. 

Green fill-in, LOL, very cute, next it'll be disco colors, settle down, only so much fun tolerated in this space?

Cheers,
Flood?+?

I always use the "K", but the the green "k" could like to me (how can you have it?)

Why in application icon don't add the original "K"?

This a good suggestion  ...

Apparently, the company decided that the icon with the red letter “K” was outdated.

And the ability to return it was made for the fans.

Ok i known, but why don't insert in the list so who want one of the three icon could chose...

the "K" is outdated but it made the original history ?

I agree. I just changed it on my Anti Virus to the K. It's a bigger, easier system tray icon to see, let alone I like the globe when it updates.

Thank you for that follow-up information, Flood. I'll give it another try when I have some spare time ?
