Step 1. Making sure that the computer meets installation requirements
Before installing Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 for Windows on a computer or updating a previous version of the application, the following conditions are checked:
- Whether or not the operating system and service pack meet the software requirements for product installation.
- Whether or not the hardware and software requirements are met.
- Whether or not the user has the rights to install the software product.
If any one of the previous requirements is not met, a relevant notification is displayed on the screen.
If the computer meets the listed requirements, the Setup Wizard searches for Kaspersky applications that could lead to conflicts when running at the same time as the application being installed. If such applications are found, you are prompted to remove them manually.
If the detected applications include previous versions of Kaspersky Endpoint Security, all data that can be migrated (such as activation data and application settings) is retained and used during the installation of Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 2 for Windows, and the previous version of the application is automatically removed. This applies to the following application versions:
- Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 for Windows Workstations MP4 CF1 / MP4 CF2
- Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 for Windows Servers MP4 / MP4 CF2
- Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 for Windows
- Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 Service Pack 1 Maintenance Release 1 for Windows
