Cause

Section titled “Cause”

Issue #3347 reports that after clicking the Gemini CLI icon in the Skill interface in CC Switch 3.16.0, the app freezes, closes, and is deleted by Kaspersky; the maintainer recommended adding it to the security allow list. The other input issues describe different interface, tray, or local environment checks and do not provide the same security software detection root cause or a unified fix.

Fix
