Installation

To install the application locally, run the setup.exe file from the full distribution package and follow the Setup Wizard instructions. See the Administrator's Guide for more details on how to install the application.

During installation, Kaspersky Endpoint Security detects and allows you to uninstall applications that may affect the performance of the user's computer or cause other problems (even to the point of complete inoperability) when running at the same time as the product. The full list of incompatible software is available in this article.

You can upgrade the following applications to Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 2 for Windows during installation from the full distribution package:

Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 for Windows (build 10.2.2.10535)
Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 1 for Windows (build 10.2.2.10535(MR1)).
Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 2 for Windows (build 10.2.4.674).
Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 3 for Windows (build 10.2.5.3201).

Upgrading from beta versions to Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 2 for Windows is not supported.

Starting with Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 2, the encryption module is included in the application distribution package as a library (cab) and will be automatically installed to your computer in the following cases:

During installation of the full disk encryption (FDE) component.
During installation of the file level encryption (FLE) component.
During installation of an upgrade on a computer with the encryption module installed.

For automatic upgrade of an installed encryption module, use the appropriate distribution package for Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 2:

kes10winsp2_<localization>_aes256 – to upgrade an AES encryption module with a 256-bit effective key length.
kes10winsp2_<localization>_aes56 – to upgrade an AES encryption module with a 56-bit effective key length.

Automatic upgrade of the encryption module will be performed only for the following configurations:

Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 (build 10.2.2.10535) and encryption module version 1.0.2.1068.
Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 1 (build 10.2.2.10535(MR1)) and encryption module version 1.0.2.1068.
Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 2 (build 10.2.4.674) and encryption module version 1.1.0.73.
Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 3 (build 10.2.5.3201) and encryption module version 1.1.0.73.

If the conditions described above are met, the application installer automatically removes the installed encryption module and installs all libraries necessary for encryption.

For a description of the methods used for updating configurations different from those listed above, as well as the actions that must be performed if you want to switch from the utilized encryption to encryption with a different effective key length, please refer to Application compatibility with AES modules and details on upgrading encryption to the Service Pack 2 verison.

Limitations and known issues

List of private patches and fixes

Application compatibility with AES modules and details on upgrading encryption to the Service Pack 2 verison

Starting with Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 2, the encryption module is included in the application distribution package as a library (cab). Thus, Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 2 for Windows is incompatible with AES encryption modules released for previous versions of Kaspersky Endpoint Security.

When the application is installed, all libraries required for encryption are installed automatically when the full disk encryption (FDE) or file level encryption (FLE) component is selected.

For automatic upgrade of an installed encryption module, use the appropriate distribution package for Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 2:

kes10winsp2_<localization>_aes256 – to upgrade an AES encryption module with a 256-bit effective key length.
kes10winsp2_<localization>_aes56 – to upgrade an AES encryption module with a 56-bit effective key length.

If you want to switch from the utilized encryption to encryption with a different key length, you must delete the utilized AES encryption module before upgrading the application to the Service Pack 2 version.

Note that you have to decrypt all hard disks that have been encrypted using full disk encryption (FDE), before removing Encryption Module. No access to folder level encryption (FLE) files will be provided after you remove Encryption Module.

When upgrading from the following configurations, the application installer automatically removes the installed encryption module and installs all libraries necessary for encryption:

Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 (build 10.2.2.10535) and encryption module version 1.0.2.1068.
Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 1 (build 10.2.2.10535(MR1)) and encryption module version 1.0.2.1068.
Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 2 (build 10.2.4.674) and encryption module version 1.1.0.73.
Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 3 (build 10.2.5.3201) and encryption module version 1.1.0.73.

If you are upgrading the application from the Service Pack 1 (build 10.2.2.10535) or Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 1 (build 10.2.2.10535(MR1)) version and an encryption module of version 1.0.0.724 or 1.0.1.814 is installed on the computer, you have to upgrade the encryption module to version 1.0.2.1068 before upgrading the application.

If you are upgrading the application from the Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 2 (build 10.2.4.674) or Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 3 (build 10.2.5.3201) version and an encryption module of version 1.0.0.724, 1.0.1.814 or 1.0.2.1068 is installed on the computer, you have to upgrade the encryption module to version 1.1.0.73 before upgrading the application.
