    I installed it on my Win10 laptop and it slowed to a crawl. It took forever to load at startup and eventually crashed my system. Thanks but no thanks!

    Did you had anything else that could have conflicted with it?

    Your signature states you are using WSA and EAM, where those in the same computer?

    Two days ago,
    I uninstalled Malware Bytes for two reasons, First reason , every time I need to update to a new version of Malwarebytes it installs Avast Antivirus , second reason is that I decided to start using Hit Man Pro again.
    I then download Kaspersky Anti Virus from the following link, which includes instructions: https://box.kaspersky.com/f/bb2ef3b3f18c4824a0b8/?dl=1 and reinstalled
    Kaspersky free security cloud 19.0.0.1088.01553.0 (a) .

    I then went to Gibson Research Corporation and ran Shields Up , a program that checks all firewall and ports .
    The test results all passed .
    I then installed Hit Man Pro ( on demand only ). and all has been working perfect .

    :eek: Never heard of that before. Are you sure it was MB installing a competitor, or could it have been CCleaner? Why would MB install a competitor?

    No I had nothing else running actually. I was trying it out after I had removed CFW.

    I tried it for a short time and it asked me the same. You simply need to have a My Kaspersky account, and once connected it will automatically change to the free version.

    Tried 3 times, it keeps asking me for a subscription, I even contacted customer support and they said this product doesn't exist.

    Keep trying. I had to create 4 new accounts until it mercifully allowed me to use it.
    I sure hope they fix it, I can not recommend something, that can not make up its mind.

    @BobH44AZ , you might want to hide your email address in that screenshot.

    It's on the bottom of the Kaspersky UI.

    You can delete the attached screenshot for now and edit it before reattaching it.

    Seems when I had this installed in the past with Comodo even when I turned off the Kaspersky firewall and had Comodo enabled the Windows Security Center thought there was no firewall enabled.

    So, does the free version include a firewall?

    you found that too haha
    funny part is, when you disable it, KSC cries about not having it enabled
    BUT, when you go to the reports tab, you can see the Firewall task not listed as enabled anytime.

    Yes, I'm getting the same issue with my KSC Cloud Free 2019 + W10 Pro x64... the interesting thing of this issue/bug is that this way We may access/control/modify the rights/rules for the different trusting groups of the combo Application Control+FireWall :p in this free product...
