<p>Hello,</p>
<p>thank you very much for enhancing protection capabilities for servers. It is really important in such scenarios where Windows Server is used as a workstation or Terminal Server for remote users - as I wrote <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://community.kaspersky.com/kaspersky-corporate-products-27/kaspersky-endpoint-security-and-windows-server-used-for-workstation-20217" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a></span>.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Please keep in mind, that at this moment the following components are still not available under Windows Server installation:</p>
<ol>
<li>Advanced Threat Protection -> Host Intrusion Prevention</li>
<li>Security Controls -> Adaptive Anomaly Control</li>
<li>Data Encryption -> File Level Encryption</li>
<li>Data Encryption -> Full Disk Encryption</li>
</ol>
<p></p>
<p>Greetings</p>

<p><strong>Problem</strong></p>
<p>After system boot and user logon, the GUI of KES versions 11.6, 11.7 and 11.8 is not loaded.Version 11.4 and earlier are not affected.</p>
<p><strong>Reproduction steps:</strong></p>
<p><span>Boot the system and logon. You will see, that GUI is loaded only after user clicks the tray icon or initiate an file virus scan. It is really annoying that user must wait so much time to access program interface, and especially in the second case, it is irritating that there is no progress window after initiating the scan (from file/folder context menu) and to see it user must lunch the scan for the second time.</span></p>
<p><strong>Actual result:</strong></p>
<p><span>I understand that such behaviour is motivated probably to limit the usage of system resources, but GUI loading should be user-controlled option in program settings.</span></p>
<p><strong>Expected Result:</strong></p>
<p><span>If we are talking about a workstation user, then GUI load at boot/logon is expected to be able to quickly access program interface and get view of the progress of file scans.</span></p>
<p><span>If there is another case where GUI isn't accessed so often, then user should be able to disable it's loading by an option in program settings.</span></p>

Hello! It's hard to understand situation without traces and more info.
In general it's normal behavior. In installation task there should be option "restart or not after installation" also, restart needed after microsoft defender was deleted while installation, or may be you install new build over old...

<p>Thank you very much for your engagement!</p>
<p>I'll watch this case.</p>
