   If you create an installation package with the sc_package.exe archive in the Kaspersky Security Center version earlier than 14.2, the installation of Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android app will fail on devices running Android 10 or later.

6. At the Accept EULA step of the wizard, read, understand, and accept the terms and conditions of the End User License Agreement.

   You must accept the terms and conditions of the End User License Agreement for creating the installation package. If you accept the terms of License Agreement in the Administration Console, Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Android skips the acceptance step during installation of the app.
