Limitations and known issues

Scan on connection is unavailable for the MTP devices.
When the Firewall rule scope consists of one IP-address only, the IPv6 format support is unavailable.
On the Firewall Management task launch the following rules types are automatically erasen from the Windows Firewall rules list:
- deny rules
- outbound rules
Archive objects scan implements SFX archives scan: when archive scan mode is enabled in the security settings, objects are scanned both in archives and in SFX archives. SFX archives scan without all archives scan is available.
The Application Setup Wizard warns about an excessively long path specified, if a full path to the Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security installation folder contains more than 150 characters. The warning does not affect the application installation and further operations are successful.
Installing the SNMP Protocol Support component requires restarting the SNMP service if this service is running.
Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security cannot be activated with a key via the Application Setup Wizard in the following cases: if the key file is located on a drive created using the SUBST command; if a network path to the key file is specified.
When protection and scan scopes are configured using Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security Console, it is possible to use only one mask in each path and only at the end of the path (for example: C:\Temp\Temp* or C:\Temp\Temp???.doc, or C:\Temp\Temp*.doc). The limitation does not spread on the Trusted Zone component.
When the command line tool is applied, special characters are displayed only if the regional settings of the operating system match the current Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security localization.
When basic authentication is used on a proxy server, authentication errors may occur when the user name or password are set using multi-byte encoding.
When a file is restored from Quarantine or Backup, the Encrypted value in the file attributes is not restored.
After the critical software modules updates are installed, the Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security icon is hidden by default.
In Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security Console, the filter is case-sensitive for the following nodes: Quarantine, Backup, System Audit Log, Task Logs.
Installation of Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security Administration Tools using Microsoft Active Directory group policies is not supported.
If User Account Control is enabled in the operating system, the user account must be included into the ESS Administrators group to allow Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security Console opening by double-clicking the application icon in the taskbar notification area. Otherwise, the About window opens.
Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server checks the application database updates before its distribution on the computer network. The application module updates are not verified by the Administration Server.
Windows Installer 3.1 is required for a proper Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security installation and work on a computer under OS Microsoft Windows XP SP2. By default, the component is not included into a distribution kit of the OS Microsoft Windows XP SP2. You can download and install Windows Installer 3.1 component manually.
The Filter Manager component is required for a proper Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security installation and work on a computer under embedded systems.
Deinstallation of the application is unavailable via the "Programs and Features" window in the operation system if the User Account Control is applied.
The application is unable to receive Windows Firewall events for the Firewall Management task log if installed on the computer under Microsoft Windows XP. Enabling of the audit process tracking in the Microsoft Windows local policy settings is required to activate the task log writing.
Predefined rules for the Windows Firewall Management policy provide fulfillment for the basic interaction between local computers and Kaspersky Security Center Administration Server. For advanced functions usage you need to configure rules for ports manually. Full list of ports, protocols and their description is available in the Kaspersky Security Knowledge Base.
The remote connection to the Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security Console is unavailable if the application is installed on a computer, that works under OS Microsoft Windows XP SP2 with default configurations of a network access and is not connected to domain: by default, the mode "Guest only" is applied for an XP OS local accounts security model.
To enable the remote application management via the Console, configure the local policy security settings manually by setting up the Classic value on a computer with Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security installed.
The Device Control task scope includes MTP-connected mass storages if a protected computer works under OS Microsoft Windows 7 or higher. Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security controls MTP-connected mass storages on a protected computer under OS Microsoft Windows XP, if the driver setups class GUID value for external devices that is identical to the standard Windows driver GUID value.
The application does not control Windows Firewall rules and groups of rules changes during every minute polling by the Firewall Management task if these rules or groups of rules have been added while installing the Firewall Management component. For refreshing such rules state and availability the task restarting is required.
Before the Firewall Management component installation the Windows Firewall Service start is required (is started by default).
The rules for groups list is inaccessible for editing via the Kaspersky Security Center by configuring the Firewall Management policy.
