If Kaspersky Security for Windows Server is installed or uninstalled using the Installation (Uninstallation) Wizard, the Windows Installer service creates an install (uninstall) log. A log file named ks4ws_v11.0_install_<uid>.log (where <uid> is a unique 8-character log identifier) will be saved in the %temp% folder for the user whose account was used to start the setup.exe file.

If you run the Modify or Remove option for the Application Console or Kaspersky Security for Windows Server from the Start menu, a log file named ks4ws_11_maintenance.log is automatically created in the %temp% folder.

If Kaspersky Security for Windows Server is installed or uninstalled from the command line, the install log file will not be created by default.

To install Kaspersky Security for Windows Server and create a log file on disk C:\:

  • msiexec /i ks4ws_x86.msi /l*v C:\ks4ws.log /qn EULA=1 PRIVACYPOLICY=1
  • msiexec /i ks4ws_x64.msi /l*v C:\ks4ws.log /qn EULA=1 PRIVACYPOLICY=1
