You can specify any protection component of Kaspersky Anti-Virus,
component module, on-demand scan or update task as the value for the
<profile> setting (the standard values used by the application are shown in
the table below).
You can specify the name of any on-demand scan or update task as the
value for the <task_name> setting.
<your_password>
The application password specified in the interface.
/R[A]:<report_file>
/R:<report_file> – log only important events in the report.
/RA:<report_file> – log all events in the report.
You can use an absolute or relative path to the file. If the parameter is not

All protection components.
The avp.com START RTP command runs all the protection components if

If the component has been disabled using the STOP command from the
command prompt, it will not be launched by the avp.com START RTP
command. In order to start it, you should execute the avp.com START
<profile> command, with the name of the specific protection component
