How to install the application

Kaspersky Free is installed to your computer in interactive mode using the Setup and Removal Wizard.

The Wizard consists of a series of pages (steps), which you can navigate through by clicking the Back and Next buttons. To close the Wizard after it finishes, click the Done button. To stop the Wizard's activity at any step of installation, close the Wizard window.

The number and sequence of steps in the Wizard depend on the region where you install the application. If you install the application in the European Union, the United Kingdom, Brazil, or as a California resident, the Wizard prompts you to accept additional agreements regarding how your personal data is processed, and to confirm that you are at least 16 years old.

To install Kaspersky Free on your computer,

run the executable file of the Setup and Uninstall Wizard downloaded from the Internet.

The application is then installed with the help of the Wizard.

Along with the application, plug-ins for browsers will be installed to ensure safe Internet browsing.

Kaspersky Free is installed together with the Kaspersky Secure Connection application intended for establishing a secure connection via Virtual Private Network (VPN). You can remove Kaspersky Secure Connection separately from Kaspersky Free. If the use of VPN is prohibited in your country, Kaspersky Secure Connection is not installed.
