Kaspersky application hangs or crashes while scanning
To fix the issue:
- Eject any external devices and start a quick scan of the computer.
- Boot the computer in Safe Mode. See this article for instructions.
- Open the Kaspersky application and start a full scan of the computer.
If the scan completed successfully in Safe Mode, it’s possible that an issue occurred with third-party applications while the computer was running in normal mode. To fix the issue, perform a clean boot in Windows and then determine which application is causing the problem. See the Microsoft support website for instructions.
If the scan ended with an error when run in Safe Mode, send a report to Kaspersky. See the instructions below.
