Application settings in full-screen mode. Gaming profile
Some applications (especially video games) running in full-screen mode are poorly compatible with some features of Kaspersky Anti-Virus: for example, pop-up notifications are really annoying in this mode. Those applications often require significant system resources, so running some tasks of Kaspersky Anti-Virus may slow down their performance.
To avoid disabling notifications manually and pausing tasks every time you run full-screen applications, Kaspersky Anti-Virus provides the option of temporarily editing the settings using the gaming profile. When the Gaming Profile is active, switching to full-screen mode automatically changes the settings of all product components to ensure optimal system functioning in that mode. Upon exit from the full-screen mode, product settings return to the initial values used before entering the full-screen mode.
To enable the gaming profile, perform the following tasks:
- Open the application settings window.
- In the left part of the window, in the Advanced Settings section, select the Gaming Profile subsection.
- Check the box
and specify in the Profile options section below the necessary gaming profile settings.
