BigBear Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I recently upgraded my KSC Free to the 2021 version,all went well till Sunday when i booted up my laptop and Kaspersky downloaded the latest definitions,thats when CPU usage rose sometimes spiking to 90 %. Anyone here using this software and having any problems ?,i did notice two posts on the Kaspersky forum with this problem but the recommendation of uninstall and reinstall didnt seem to cure the problem. Another issue i had was after uninstalling and rebooting the laptop it loaded to a black screen with just the cursor showing,took me a couple of hours to fix the problem.

It was avp.exe running the high CPU load. I do use a chromium browser as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casa Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Is the Rootkit scan or Background scan available in the free edition? Try disabling it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try disabling it. 1) "Rootkit scan" and "quick scan" are the same. Only "rootkit scan" comes in the background and with reduced CPU and disk consumption. 2) The same number of objects will not get. There are many nuances. For example, running / running processes are included in the scan. Windows constantly runs background tasks, so the number of objects to be scanned is constantly changing. 3) The number of quick scan objects will be greater than that of rootkit scan."
