PAUSING PROTECTION
Pausing protection means temporarily disabling all protection components for a certain period of time.
As a result of temporarily disabling protection, all protection components will be paused. This is indicated by:
inactive (grey) application icon in the taskbar notification area;
red color of the status icon and panel of the main application window.
If network connections were established at the same time as the protection was paused, a notification about termination
of such connections will be displayed.
To pause the protection of your computer:
1. In the application's context menu (see section "Context menu" on page 37), select the Pause protection item.
2. In the Pause protection window that will open, select the time interval after which the protection should be
resumed:
Pause for the next <time interval> – protection will be enabled in a specified amount of time. Use the
dropdown menu to select the time interval value.
Pause before reboot – protection will be enabled after application restart or after the system restart
(provided that Kaspersky Anti-Virus is set to start automatically on startup).
Pause – protection will be enabled only after you start it manually. To enable protection, select the Resume
protection item from the application's context menu.
