How to apply the application settings on another computer

Having configured Kaspersky Free in a particular way, you can then apply the settings on another computer. As a result, Kaspersky Free will be configured identically on both computers.

Kaspersky Free settings are saved in a configuration file that you can move from one computer to another.

The settings of Kaspersky Free are moved from one computer to another in three steps:

  1. Save Kaspersky Free settings to configuration file.
  2. Move the configuration file to the other computer (for example, by email or on a removable drive).
  3. Import the settings from the configuration file to Kaspersky Free that is installed on the other computer.

How to export settings

To export Kaspersky Free settings:

  1. Open the main application window.
  2. Click Settings button in the lower part of the main window.

    This opens the Settings window.

  3. In the Settings window select the Manage settings section.
  4. Select Export.
  5. The Save window opens.
  6. Specify a name for the configuration file and click the Save button.

The application settings are now saved in the configuration file.

You can also export Kaspersky Free settings at the command prompt, by using the following command: avp.com EXPORT <file_name>.

During export of Kaspersky Free settings, website addresses that you added to Safe Money are saved only for the current user. During import of settings on another computer, website addresses are not saved.

How to import settings

To import settings to Kaspersky Free that is installed on another computer:

  1. On the other computer, open the main window of Kaspersky Free.
  2. Click the Settings button button in the lower part of the window.
