How does the "release resources to the operating system when computer starts" work?

[Rimanah]

Should it be enabled for better security or disabled? How much does it increase the security? Also how much does it affect the performance - does it affect only startup times? I do use SSD, so would the difference be small?

 

Please answer here with a proper explanation, thanks!

@Rimanah Please see this K-Lab article
“This check box controls the use of operating system resources by Kaspersky Security Cloud. If this check box is selected, only critical protection components of Kaspersky Security Cloud are run at the startup of the operating system. Protection is completely enabled after the operating system loads. If this check box is cleared, all protection components are run simultaneously when the operating system starts up.”

Alright and what about the performace(with an SSD)/security impact?

@Rimanah I am sure you are aware that Solid State Drives are providing a high performance level.
I  am on the default stetting but i leave this to your personal choice.

 @Rimanah, delayed start refers mainly to the graphical user interface of the antivirus and on those components that do not affect protection when loading the operating system. So this does not reduce protection.

The setting only works when the computer boots up and is mainly intended for slow computers.

When using SSD, the difference will really be small.

Thanks, that’s the info I needed! So I’ll just turn the option off(uncheck), for the better security(even though it’s small gain)
