Installing and removing the application

Kaspersky Endpoint Security can be installed on a computer in the following ways:

• locally, by using the Setup Wizard.
• locally from the command line.
• remotely using Kaspersky Security Center.
• remotely through the Microsoft Windows Group Policy Management Editor (for more details, visit the Microsoft Technical Support website).
• remotely, by using the System Center Configuration Manager.

You can configure the application installation settings in several ways. If you simultaneously use multiple methods for configuring the settings, Kaspersky Endpoint Security applies the settings with the highest priority. Kaspersky Endpoint Security uses the following order of priorities:

1. Settings received from the setup.ini file.
2. Settings received from the installer.ini file.
3. Settings received from the command line.
4. Settings received from the configuration file (install.cfg).

We recommend closing all running applications before starting the installation of Kaspersky Endpoint Security (including remote installation).

When installing Kaspersky Endpoint Security, the operating system may show its own messages. Network and Internet connections may also be interrupted when the application is being installed.

When installing, updating or uninstalling Kaspersky Endpoint Security, errors may occur. For more information about solving these errors, please refer to the Technical Support Knowledge Base.
