Editing task settings using a configuration file

If the application is used in Light Agent mode to protect virtual environments, the settings of the Update task cannot be edited.

To edit task settings by changing a configuration file:

1. Save task settings to the configuration file:

   kesl-control --get-settings <task ID>|<task name> --file <full path to the file> [--json]

2. Open the created configuration file for editing.
3. Edit the required settings in the configuration file.
4. Save the changes in the configuration file.
5. Import the settings from the configuration file into the task:

   kesl-control --set-settings < task ID>|<task name> --file <full path to the file> [--json]

Task settings will be updated.

If you change the allowlist, or prohibit launch of all applications or applications that affect the operation of Kaspersky Endpoint Security in the Application Control task settings, run the --set-settings command with the --accept flag.
