Creating the update startup schedule

You can create a schedule to automatically start an update task: specify task run frequency, start time (if necessary), and advanced settings.

If it is not possible to start the task for any reason (for example, the computer was not on at that time), you can configure the skipped task to start automatically as soon as it becomes possible.

You can also postpone automatic startup of the task after the application is started. Note that all scheduled tasks will be run only after the specified time interval elapses since the startup of Kaspersky Internet Security.

Special Idle Scan mode allows you to start automatic update keeping your computer idle.

1. Open the application settings window.
2. In the left part of the window, in the Update Center section, select the Update Settings component.
