Scheduled Tasks - Kaspersky Security for Windows Server (11.0.1.897) X Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows (11.11.0.452) - On Demand Scan X Malware Scan

[Atila Heidemann]

Kaspersky Security for Windows Server (11.0.1.897) is finishing support. Then, we are changed our servers to Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows (11.11.0.452). We find a issue with scan Scheduled Tasks. 

Kaspersky Security for Windows Server (11.0.1.897) has more granularity, with a frequency of a scan (Hour,Daily,Weekly) and a period that start a task (Every hour,Every daily,every weekly) and can be defined as exactly period that want start a scan task.
With Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows (11.11.0.452) we can choose only a day o week and hour. I Know that has another options as: Every Montlhy, but in every Montly it´s only possible choose a day of the montly, but not a day of week.

For us, is important to can choose a week day to do a scan, because, we have a big disks in several servers, and this tasks take days to finish, and we can avoid to scan in weekend because in weekend runs backups of all ours servers.

To support a server product, Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows (11.11.0.452) must have a iqual scan schedule task as Kaspersky Security for Windows Server (11.0.1.897) .

We want can to define, a day of week to start a scan task, and frequency (every) that task just as it's done with Kaspersky Security for Windows Server (11.0.1.897).

Hello,

it is true that KES Scheduler for Virus Scan is different than KSWS because both are different products.

Currently KES will be developed to replace KSWS in the future but this is still in progress. In short words some features from KSWS are not implemented in KES yet. This will be expected next year with Version 12. But there is no date and time when it will be announced.

In the meantime it is no problem to use KSWS further until end of life

Please check if scheduler is changed in future versions or open a feature request at support.
