    Description

    Automatically detect scalability settings

    Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows automatically controls the number of processes used.

    This is the default value.

    Set the number of working processes manually

    Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows controls the number of active working processes according to the values specified.

    Number of processes for real-time protection

    Display System Tray Icon in the taskbar

    Configure whether the System Tray Icon will be displayed in the notification area.

    Restore file attributes after scanning

    When Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows performs On-Demand Scan and Real-Time File Protection tasks, the time when each scanned file was last accessed is updated. After the scan, Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows resets the time when the file was last accessed to the initial value.

    This behavior can affect the work of backup systems by causing creation of backup copies for files that haven’t been changed. This can also cause false detections in file change tracking applications.

    By default, this function is enabled.
