How to install Kaspersky Secure Connection

Kaspersky Secure Connection cannot be installed in Belarus, Oman, Pakistan, Qatar, Iran, Saudi Arabia, China, and Hong Kong due to legal limitations on the use of Virtual Private Network (VPN).

Kaspersky Secure Connection can be installed on a computer as a standalone application or as a component of Kaspersky Free, Kaspersky Anti-Virus, Kaspersky Internet Security, or Kaspersky Total Security.

Kaspersky Secure Connection is installed along with Kaspersky Free, Kaspersky Anti-Virus, Kaspersky Internet Security, or Kaspersky Total Security automatically. You do not need to perform any additional installation steps.

When installing a standalone Kaspersky Secure Connection application, follow the instructions of the wizard.

After you install Kaspersky Secure Connection, Kaspersky Security Data Escort Adapter appears in Device Manager and Network Connections.

Installation via the command prompt

You can also install Kaspersky Secure Connection separately from the command line.

- /h opens a help dialog box.

Advanced parameters:
- /a denotes administrative installation when installation files are copied to a specified network folder (example: KSDE18.0.0.405.en-US.exe /aZ:\Kaspersky Lab)
