Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Windows 11.2.0

Step 6. Repository folder

This step is available if you selected the Category that includes executable files from a specific folder category type.

At this step, click the Browse button and specify the folder in which Kaspersky Security Center will search for executable files to automatically add applications to the application category.

At this step, you can also configure the following settings:

• Include dynamic-link libraries (DLL) in this category check box. Select this check box if you want the application category to include dynamic-link libraries (files in DLL format) and the Application Control component to log the actions of such libraries running in the system.

  Including DLL files in the application category may reduce the performance of Kaspersky Security Center.

• Include script data in this category check box. Select this check box if you want the application category to include data on scripts, and to not have scripts blocked by the Web Threat Protection component.

  Including the script data in the application category may reduce the performance of Kaspersky Security Center.

• Algorithm for hash function calculation by Kaspersky Security Center. To select an algorithm, you must select at least one of the following check boxes:
  • Calculate SHA-256 for files in this category (supported by Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 2 for Windows and any later versions) check box.
  • Calculate MD5 for files in this category (supported by versions earlier than Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 2 for Windows) check box.
• Force folder scan for changes check box. Select this check box if you want Kaspersky Security Center to periodically search for executable files in the folder used for automatically adding to the application category.

  If the Force folder scan for changes check box is cleared, Kaspersky Security Center searches for executable files in the folder used for automatically adding to the application category only if changes have been made in the folder, files have been added to it or deleted from it.

• Scan period (h) field. In this field, you can specify the time interval (in hours) after which Kaspersky Security Center will search for executable files in the folder used for automatically adding to the application category.

  This field is available if the Force folder scan for changes check box is selected.

To proceed with the Setup Wizard, click the Next button.
