How to install the application and perform its initial configuration

You can install the application in the following ways:

• install and perform the initial configuration of the application interactively and simultaneously
• install and perform the initial configuration of the application automatically and simultaneously
• install the application and then perform the initial configuration automatically
• install the application and then perform the initial configuration interactively

Initial configuration of the application is performed by running the initial configuration script. The initial configuration script is included in the Kaspersky distribution kit.

If initial configuration of the application has not been completed on a device, you cannot use or update the application on that device.

The Kaspersky application protects the device only after the application databases are updated.

To correctly update application modules after the script has finished, you may need to restart the application. You can check the status of updates for the application using the following command: kfl-control --app-info.

Simultaneous interactive installation and initial configuration of the application

To install and set up the Kaspersky application interactively:

1. Allow the configuration file to run by executing one of the following commands, depending on your operating system:
   • For a Debian-based OS: chmod +x ./kfl_2.0.0-<build number>_amd64.deb.setup
   • For an OS with the RPM package manager: chmod +x ./kfl_2.0.0-<build number>.x86_64.rpm.setup
2. Start the installation and initial configuration of the application by executing one of the following commands, depending on your operating system:
   • For a Debian-based OS: sudo ./kfl_2.0.0-<build number>_amd64.deb.setup
   • For an OS with the RPM package manager: sudo ./kfl_2.0.0-<build number>.x86_64.rpm.setup
3. When prompted by the script that runs after installation is complete, perform the initial configuration of the application interactively.

   The initial configuration script prompts you to enter values of Kaspersky settings step by step.

   To manage application settings and task settings in the graphical interface of the application and on the command line without using the sudo command, you need privileges of the Administrator role.

The script finishing and the console being released indicate that the installation and initial configuration of the application are complete.

Simultaneous automatic installation and initial configuration of the application

To install and set up the Kaspersky application automatically:

1. Allow the configuration file to run by executing one of the following commands, depending on your operating system:
   • For a Debian-based OS: chmod +x ./kfl_2.0.0-<build number>_amd64.deb.setup
   • For an OS with the RPM package manager: chmod +x ./kfl_2.0.0-<build number>.x86_64.rpm.setup
2. Start the installation and initial configuration of the application by executing one of the following commands, depending on your operating system:
   • For a Debian-based OS: sudo ./kfl_2.0.0-<build number>_amd64.deb.setup --autoinstall <full path to the configuration file>
   • For an OS with the RPM package manager: sudo ./kfl_2.0.0-<build number>.x86_64.rpm.setup --autoinstall <full path to the configuration file>

The script finishing and the console being released indicate that the installation and initial configuration of the application are complete.

Step-by-step installation and initial configuration of the application

To install the Kaspersky application and then perform initial configuration:
