How to reserve operating system resources for computer games
When Kaspersky Anti-Virus runs in full-screen mode together with some other applications (particularly computer games), the following issues may occur:
- Application or game performance decreases due to lack of system resources
- Notification windows of Kaspersky Anti-Virus distract the user from the gaming process
To avoid changing the settings of Kaspersky Anti-Virus manually every time you switch to full-screen mode, you can use Gaming mode. If Gaming mode is being used and you are playing or working with applications in full-screen mode, Kaspersky Anti-Virus does not run scan and update tasks and does not display notifications.
To enable Gaming mode:
- Open the main application window.
- Click the
button in the lower part of the window.The Settings window opens.
- Select the General section.
- In the Performance settings block, select the Use Gaming mode check box.
