Whoiam 1 Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 the software is opened automatically you can go to advance settings in the app (F5) -> user interface -> and close the V near the show screen on startup. Havokry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Solution Marcos 4,705 Posted February 27, 2022 Administrators Solution Share Posted February 27, 2022 Ekrn and drivers are loaded prior to gui itself so when the splash screen shows up, ESET is already protecting your computer.

Windows itself starts a handful of services before Windows GUI appears. ESET must start ekrn as early as possible to keep your computer protected, not only after Windows gui loads.

If users feel more confident seeing the ESET icon appearing as soon as possible , why not???? New_Style_xd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is if Eset GUI and drivers loaded at the same time they would have to wait for windows GUI first. By loading eset services and stuff before the Windows GUI has loaded, eset is protecting you from the start. If it waited for the Eset GUI it would potentially put the user at risk. I presume some stuff will have more priority. Not sure if it could be quickened though or if that would cause delays New_Style_xd 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwardnv 1 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 pretty sure eset protection components load before you even login but the gui is i think user level and so loads as all other user level apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
