Starting and stopping the application
After installing Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security to a user's computer, the application is started automatically. By default, Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security is started after operating system startup. It is not possible to configure automatic startup of the application in the operating system settings.
Downloading Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security anti-virus databases after the operating system starts can take up to two minutes depending on the capabilities of the computer. During this time, the level of computer protection is reduced. The downloading of anti-virus databases when Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security is started on an already started operating system does not cause a reduction in the level of computer protection.
