The beta is getting installed with “Low restrict”, possibly have a bad certificate and do not have write access to the hosts file (see image below).I do not know if this is possible with Kaspersky Total Security. I want to allow the beta to be able to write to the hosts-file. Is there a possibility to allow access for one program to a specific file?.This has become two issues, but for me it is one that matters the most. Ok, apparently I was a bit unclear above )Īnd I thank you for your will to investigate this 👌 I have found two differences, that may or may not affect the “write block” What i really would like is to add a rule that allows the beta to edit the hosts-file, which feels like a better solution than turning off all monitoring for the program (a program that runs php-code from WordPress, plugins etc). This feels like a very temporary solution… So what I had to do to get the beta working is to turn off program monitoring for that exe “Do not monitor application activity”, in Program Rules/Exclusions Tab. So the stable version is grouped as “Trusted” and the beta is grouped in “Low restricted”, but even when I manually put it in “Trusted” I still get the “write block”. This program works fine and I have not needed to anything to get it to work, Kaspersky does nothing.īut Flywheel has recently released a new version in beta and that program is being blocked when it tries to add something in the hosts-file. So they need to edit the hosts file when setting up new sites locally. I am using “Local by Flywheel” and it works fine, it is a tools for creating and running WordPress sites locally and the publishing to their hosting platform. Yes, I get and error when the program tries to modify C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
