You can manually install the application update from the command line. Kaspersky Endpoint Security must be installed on your computer to install the application update.

Application patches may be installed inconsequently.

To install Kaspersky Endpoint Security update from an RPM package, execute the following command:

# rpm -U <rpm package name>.rpm

To install Kaspersky Endpoint Security RPM package of the same version, execute the following command:

# rpm -U --replacefiles --replacepkgs <rpm package name>.rpm

To install Kaspersky Endpoint Security update from a DEB package, execute the following command:

# dpkg -i <deb package name>.deb

The application update process is started.

The application or operating system restart may be required. The corresponding message is displayed. After the application or operating system restart, the updated version of Kaspersky Endpoint Security is started.

After the application update, accepting the End User License Agreement, Privacy Policy and/or Kaspersky Security Network Statement is required if these documents were changed by Kaspersky. The corresponding message is displayed.
