Manually starting, stopping, pausing, and resuming a task

If Kaspersky Endpoint Security is running on a computer, you can start, stop, pause, and resume a task on this computer via Kaspersky Security Center. When Kaspersky Endpoint Security is suspended, running tasks are suspended and it becomes impossible to start, stop, suspend, or resume a task through Kaspersky Security Center.

To start, stop, suspend, or resume a local task:

1. Open the Administration Console of Kaspersky Security Center.
2. In the Managed devices folder of the Kaspersky Security Center Administration Console tree, open the folder with the name of the administration group to which the relevant computer belongs.
3. In the workspace, select the Devices tab.
4. In the list of client computers, select the computer on which you want to start, stop, suspend, or resume a local task.
5. In the context menu of the computer, select Properties.

   The computer properties window opens.

6. Select the Tasks section.

   A list of local tasks appears in the right part of the window.

7. Select a local task that you want to start, stop, suspend, or resume.
8. Do one of the following:
   • Right-click to display the context menu of the local task. Select Start / Stop / Pause / Resume.
   • To start or stop a local task, click the  / button on the right of the local tasks list.
   • Under the local tasks list, click the Properties button. The Properties: <Local task name> window opens. In the Properties: <Local task name> window, on the General tab, click the Start, Stop, Pause, or Resume button.

To start, stop, pause, or resume a group task:
