Considering that the operating system of the virtual machine that you want to protect could contain malicious programs that are capable of interfering with the installation of Light Agent for Windows, it is recommended to protect the installation.
Installation protection is enabled by default.
It is recommended to disable installation protection if Light Agent installation fails. For example, this may occur during remote installation via Windows Remote Desktop. The reason for this may be that installation protection is enabled for Light Agent for Windows. In this case, terminate the installation and restart the Installation wizard. At this step, clear the Protect the installation process check box.
If you install Light Agent on a virtual machine that uses Citrix Provisioning (Citrix Provisioning Services) technology, select the Ensure compatibility with Citrix Provisioning (Citrix Provisioning Services) check box. This check box is cleared by default.
If you are installing Light Agent for Windows on a template of temporary virtual machines, select the Installation on the template for temporary VDI pools check box. Updates that require restarting the protected virtual machine will not be installed on virtual machines created from this template. When it receives updates that require a restart of the protected virtual machine, Light Agent for Windows will send a message to Kaspersky Security Center informing it that the databases and application modules need to be updated on the protected virtual machine template. This check box is cleared by default.
