Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2018

Adaptation of Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2018 at the first startup after upgrading the operating system to Windows 10

Back to "Windows 10 support"

If you have upgraded your PC to Windows 10 RS4, Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2018 will run the adaptation process upon initial system startup. Protection will be stopped for a while: only File anti-virus and the self-defense of files and registry keys will work, the user interface will be unavailable.

After the adaptation to Windows 10, protection will be restored. A notification will also appear stating that you must restart your computer in order for all the components of Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2018 to work correctly. Until you restart the computer, the following protection components will work with limitations:

• Application interface and startup processes protection within Self-Defense. 
• System Watcher. 
• Detection and disinfection of malicious software in system memory. 
• Protection against file-encrypting malware and screen lockers. 
• Protection against Time-of-Check Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) attacks.
