The command kesl-control --get-app-settings displays the general settings of Kaspersky Endpoint Security. Using this command, you can also receive the general settings of Kaspersky Endpoint Security that were assigned using the configuration file.

You can use this command to edit the general settings of Kaspersky Endpoint Security installed on the computer:

  1. Save the general settings of Kaspersky Endpoint Security in the configuration file using the option --get-app-settings.
  2. Open the created configuration file, edit the necessary settings and save the changes.
  3. Import the settings from the configuration file to Kaspersky Endpoint Security using the option --set-app-settings. Kaspersky Endpoint Security will apply the new values of the settings after you stop and restart Kaspersky Endpoint Security.

You can use the created configuration file to import the settings to Kaspersky Endpoint Security installed on another computer.

Command syntax

kesl-control [-T] --get-app-settings [--file <configuration file name>]

Arguments and keys

--file <name of configuration file>

Name of the configuration file in which Kaspersky Endpoint Security settings will be saved. If you specify the name of a file without specifying its path, the file will be created in the current directory. If a file with the specified name already exists in the specified path, it will be overwritten. If the specified directory cannot be found on the disk, the configuration file will not be created.

Example:

Export the general settings of Kaspersky Endpoint Security to a file named kesl_config.ini. Save the created file in the current directory:

kesl-control --get-app-settings --file kesl_config.ini
