jetspeedz 3 Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 I finally upgraded from Smart Security 7 to the newest internet security. On Smart Security 7 I could easily click on the Eset icon in they tray and "Pause Protection" it would come up with a window defaulting to 10 minutes which was perfect. I would still get notification as usual if a threat was found etc when protection was turned on as expected. With this new Internet Security there is an extra step which I'm hoping can be eliminated or disabled b/c it serves no purpose other than an unnecessary confirmation box. When I select Pause Protection it comes up with the "Threat found Recently ... disabling protection... yada yada yada prompt. I have to select Apply than the 10 minute standard pop up appears. Is there a way to get rid of this unnecessary prompt, without affecting other normal notifications? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are getting this type of notification before disabling because before that recently there was a threat detected and ESET is telling you because of that. , usually you would get the same message that you saw in ESET v7.

jetspeedz 3 Posted October 11, 2021 Author Share Posted October 11, 2021 Is there a way to disable this? It's just an annoying step that serves no benefit. Also it does not go away even after hours of no threat found Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 4,601 Posted October 11, 2021 Administrators Share Posted October 11, 2021 I reckon that after rebooting the machine the alert would not show up again until a threat has been detected again. So the solution is to avoid a threat being detected after a reboot if you don't want to get this alert when pausing protection. There is no way to disable it.
