Windows 10: Kaspersky total security 2018 seem causing BSOD on my PC

My PC recently often occur BSOD "Kmode exception not handled", which is after installing KTS 2018. Now BSOD doesn't occur again after going back to KTS 2017. However, I am not sure if bsod will occur again later. My question is that , can antivirus cause BSOD? But it seems that antivirus is not hardware related.

Micosoft Browser EDGE and Norton Internet Security?

Best security software as per me is either Kaspersky or Bitdefender Total Security 2018 which protects all browsers. Currently I have installed Kaspersky Total Security 2018 & I am fully secured & satisfied.

 

Micosoft Browser EDGE and Norton Internet Security?

Thanks for this information on Kaspersky. Can you also review Bitdefender Total Security 2018 a litle Bit.

 

Sure it can and The KGB can as well--Just Joking..*chuckle Serious it can any AV can. The majority of BSOD's are caused by software or drivers.

 

From where does this come from?

Kmode_exception_not_handled, a kernel mode routine that has illegal or improper instructions that the exception handler of Windows can't catch.

 

can't believe yall still trust kaspersky

 

KTS does install various drivers which might be causing problems for you. I suggest you make a support request to Kaspersky who are usually good in sorting out problems.

 

I have some concerns but Barclays who provide free Kaspersky antivirus software say they are aware of the issues and continue to recommend their software.

 

I can trust it to find the NSA sponsored malware out there. *Wink Look between the lines and the hysteria, and it'll become clearer what the agenda is for those dirtying Kaspersky's name. Not that I trust them 100%, just as I don't trust any software 100%, but I do have a higher regard for them than most security software out there.

 

Why though
Many other better programs that have no controversy

 

Because I think it's one of the best AV out there and I also feel that the other AV companies are just as complicit with their respective governments/security agencies as is being claimed about Kaspersky. As I said, the controversy is dubious, fits an agenda and seems to be more about Kaspersky not whitelisting and previously exposing NSA sponsored malware.

BTW, do you trust your Chinese made hardware?

Anyway, as this is wildly off-topic, I'll move on.

 

The better AV the more likely it will cause BSOD, because of all the features, I prefer free AVs for this reason.

Since you are using KIS, you better contact their support to solve this.

Can not believe that people believe something without a single shred of evidence. *Rolleyes

Germany: “No evidence” Kaspersky software used by Russians for hacks

 

I don't trust them either. And for the record, no I haven't trusted Chinese software for a long time.

 

Getting back to the original topic ...

I updated another PC to the CU yesterday and KTS 2018 reported a load error. I uninstalled and reinstalled KTS 2018 as the program recommended and all is now fine. Have you tried reinstalling KTS 2018?
