Scan hangs at com.apple.telemetry

[MacGarage]

Has there been any success or help with this issue? There does not seem to be much help from Kaspersky.

What did Kaspersky Tech Support indicate to you? :)

I made sure that there was no conflicting applications installed. It is concerning that you are asked to repair disk permissions in 10.14 as I believe this option was removed years ago. I am forced to restart in order to stop the frozen scan.

I have switched to Kaspersky Security Cloud 20 and the problem with com.apple.telemetry scan hang is there too. Currently I'm running MacOS 10.14.6. It seems to be an "engine" issue as it happens not only with Internet Security and I am pretty sure the analysis "engine" is the same on all code names. Also, on Security Cloud, the automated scan of inserted drives hangs too always and you just can't safely remove the attached drive. In order to make it stop, you have to reboot machine.

Hello h3x00r, Welcome again! Have you followed (my) advice & that provided by Igor Kurzin, & richbuff ? Please let us know? Thank you:pray_tone3:

[h3x00r]

Hey FLOOD, I’ve already contacted the technical support. As soon as I have additional details, I’ll post them here. Thank you!

[Flood and Flood's wife]

Excellent h3x00r, good work & thank you:pray_tone3:

Hello, I have submitted trace files and other details to the technical support. One thing that I have remarked while reproducing the issue is that it manifests only after the virus databases are updated with a new release version. Any scan that follows the database update hangs at some point. It is like some caching technology optimizes the scanning engine to skip certain already analyzed files and when the virus db update comes, the optimization stack tech fails somewhere. I don't know. Still waiting for a response from the technical support thus I'll come back with additional updates. Thank you!

Hello, my Kaspersky Internet Security on Mac stops con 1% always when I want to scan a file, please help!!

[Railroader66]

I have the same problem , but for me the solution was to remove the scan history before to do a new full scan. Maybe that will help to find the solution ?

It looks like it's working with this solution Railroader66, thanks. If I experience the same error again I will post.

I'm no expert (at all), but I did something that apparently worked (apparently because I'm STILL running Kaspersky - right now 7% scanned). What I did was running the "Disk Utility" WHILE scanning the Mac. Magically after I ran Disk Utility, I went back to check how Kaspersky was doing, and there were more than 1% scanned. Could anyone try that and see if also works? I'm using macOS High Sierra 10.13.6. Can't remember when was the last time that the program ran properly. It would always stop at 1%, so today I decided to find a solution and ended up here. Good luck to all! (19% progress so far!)

[Railroader66]

The problem is back , after 1 month without any solution from Kaspersky , I have changed Kaspersky for another antivirus. Sorry but this is not professional from Kaspersky. Do something to the problem.

I tried to solve this with Kaspersky and whatever solution I tried had limited success and the problem returned. Most full scans and custom scans stalled well before they completed, forcing me to kill the process.  I’ve been following this and other threads and I’ve concluded that Kaspersky has some fundamental incompatabilities with Mac OS Catalina and some prior versions, and I’m going to replace the product when my subscription is over. I have neither the time nor the inclination to help Kaspersky beta test their releases. I do like the company and its product but I don't want to spend any more time on this issue.

I am totally agree with you, the problem persists and I really wonder if Kaspersky is trying to fix it. Otherwise I really could end my subscription if the problem doesn’t get to and end.

Did you  collect logs and submit a ticket as Igor Kurzin and FLOOD have indicated in the posts located earlier in this topic thread?

[r055co]

Yeah I paid ahead for 2 year’s, full scans fail around ½ way, the network attack protection hangs my Mac and I have to constantly hard reboot.  That and numerous times it causes my Mac to reboot and at times freezes while booting up.

 

Opened a ticket and only thing accomplished was consistent asking for logs, more logs, etc.  Yep I’m done with KIS even though I have a year left, life is too short to put up with this BS.  I’ll check out another AV, hopefully I’ll find something that actually works and doesn’t kill my MacBook Pro.

[Flood and Flood's wife]

Hello @r055co, 

Welcome!

Please tell us:

1. MAC version & build? 
2. KIS version & patch(x) x=letter
3. Is Time Machine connected when the KIS Full Scan hangs?  

Please let me know?

Thank you🙏
