Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security 3.4 for Windows

About Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows update

An upgrade to Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows version 3.4 is available for application versions 2.3, 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3. To update from another version, remove the installed version and install version 3.4.

The update is performed by installing the new version of the application over the installed version of the application and does not require a computer restart.

By default, the application creates a new installation folder with the name of the new application version based on the path to the existing application installation folder. You can manually specify a new path for the application installation folder.

When upgrading Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows to version 3.4, the previously installed version of the application is automatically deleted.

If your version of Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows is earlier than 2.3, you must first uninstall the installed application before installing the new version.

When updating a password-protected installation of Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows version 2.3 or later, pass the password to the installer in one of the following ways:

  • If installing locally via the Installation Wizard interface or in interactive CLI mode, specify the password when requested.
  • If installing locally in non-interactive CLI mode, specify the password in the UNLOCK_PASSWORD key.
  • If installing remotely via Kaspersky Security Center, pass the current password in the installation package settings.
  • When installing application via Active Directory group policies, specify the value of UNLOCK PASSWORD key in the install_props.json configuration file.

When updating the application, the current license is automatically applied to Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security for Windows version 3.4, and the use of the new application components and tasks is fully available. The license term remains unchanged.

If an application is updated with an expired license, the new version of the application runs in limited functionality mode after installation (for example, application database updates are not available).
