Task management

Task is a Kaspersky Endpoint Security component, implementing part of the program functionality. For example, the full scan task scans the whole computer for viruses; the Update task downloads and installs database updates for Kaspersky Endpoint Security.

In the lower part of the main application window on the Protection tab you can find information related to scheduled and active tasks on your computer.

You can manage the tasks started on your computer: stop, pause and resume them. For the database update tasks only stop operation is available.

Information about operations on started tasks is displayed in the events log.

To stop, pause or resume a task:

  1. Open the main application window.
  2. Select the Protection tab.
  3. In the lower part of the window in the task list select a task that you want to modify.
  4. Perform one of the following actions:
    • If you want to stop a task, click the Stop button.
    • If you want to pause a task when it is running, click the Suspend button.
    • If you want to resume the task, click the Resume button.

    The operation will be performed. The information about operation will be stored in the events log.

If you start a suspended task, the Resume scan window opens.

To resume or restart a scan task:

  • If you want to resume a task, click the Resume scan link.

    The scan will resume from the point where it was paused.

  • If you want to restart the scan, click the Restart scan link.

    The scan will restart.
