To change how applications are displayed in the list, click these links:

• Clicking the Start link sorts applications in the list into two groups: Block startup and Allow startup .
• Clicking the Restrictions link sorts applications in the list by trust groups. For example, trusted applications are listed in the Trusted group.

Clicking this link causes Kaspersky Total Security to remove applications that no longer exist from the list.

In the drop-down list, you can select a display mode for applications and processes:

• Expand all. Selecting this item shows all applications installed on the computer in the list.
• Collapse all. Selecting this item shows trust groups in the list.

In the drop-down list, you can select a display mode for applications and processes:

• View as list. If you select this option, applications and processes are displayed as a list.
• View as tree. If you select this option, applications and processes are displayed hierarchically, based on the order in which the processes were called.

This drop-down list also lets you disable the display of system applications, Kaspersky applications, and non-network applications:

• Hide system applications. If you select this item, the overall list of applications and processes does not display applications that are required for proper functioning of the operating system. System applications are hidden by default.
• Hide Kaspersky Total Security. If you select this item, the overall list of applications and processes does not display Kaspersky applications. Kaspersky applications are hidden by default.
• Show network applications only. If you select this item, the overall list of applications and processes displays only network applications. Network applications are applications intended for organizing collaboration of a group of users on different computers.

This list contains applications installed on your computer. For each application in the list, you can view information on the status, digital signature, trust group, popularity among KSN users, and time of their most recent launch.

Double-clicking the row of an application or process opens the Application rules window. In this window, you can configure rules for controlling the actions of the application.

Right-clicking the row of the application opens a context menu. From the context menu, you can perform the following actions:

• Open the Application rules window, in which you can configure permissions for application activity.
• Allow or block application startup.
• Move the application to another trust group.
• Apply default Application Privilege Control settings to an application (reset application settings).
• Remove the application from the list.
• Open the folder that contains the executable file of the application.

The applications in the list are included into groups and subgroups. Right-clicking the row of the group opens a context menu. From the context menu, you can perform the following actions:

• Open the Group rules window, where you can set up default permissions for actions of applications in this group.
• Create a subgroup in the group. By default, the rules specified for the group a subgroup belongs to are applied to this subgroup.
• Add an application to the group. By default, the rules specified for the group an application belongs to are applied to this application.
• Apply default Application Privilege Control settings to the group and all subgroups and applications in this group (reset group settings).
• Apply default Application Privilege Control settings to all subgroups and applications in the group while keeping group settings unchanged (reset subgroup and application settings).
• Delete subgroups and applications from the group.

This column shows the application name.

This column shows the trust group to which the application belongs. The trust group defines the rules for using the application on the computer: prohibit or permit launch, the application's access to files and to the system registry, and restrictions on the application's network activity.

This column shows the level of application popularity among participants of Kaspersky Security Network (KSN). The level of popularity reflects the number of KSN participants who use the application.

This column lets you select the action to be performed by the application when the application attempts to access the network.

The table below lists the operations performed by Kaspersky Total Security when an application or group of applications attempts to access the network.

Description of Kaspersky Total Security actions

In this column, you can use the switch to allow or block startup of the selected application. By default, startup of an application is allowed or blocked depending on the restrictions for the group to which the application belongs.
