Installing ID PROTECTION on Windows computers (F-Secure)

With F-Secure TOTAL, the number of ID PROTECTION licenses and monitored items is determined by your TOTAL subscription. For example, if you have a 5-device subscription, you can have ID PROTECTION on five devices with up to 10 email addresses monitored.

Before you start to install ID PROTECTION on your computer, make sure you have the My F-Secure account ready.

1. Log in to your My F-Secure account.
2. In My F-Secure, select TOTAL apps in the top bar.
3. On the My F-Secure dashboard, select ID PROTECTION.
4. Select Install ID PROTECTION.
5. Select My device, and then select Continue.
6. Select This computer, and then select Download for Windows.
7. Save the downloaded file, find it from your Downloads folder and double-click it to start the installation.

   Note: If prompted for your administrator credentials, enter them and select Yes.

8. Once the F-Secure ID PROTECTION Setup window opens, read the End User License Terms and select Accept and continue.
9. When the installation is completed, select Get started.
10. When the Name new device window opens, enter the name of your device and select Continue.
11. Do one of the following:
    • • If this is your first ID PROTECTION installation, select Create Master Password:
        1. Create a strong master password.
        2. Repeat the master password to confirm it.
        3. Select Create Master Password.
        4. To save your recovery code, select Save recovery code.

           Important: We strongly recommend that you create an F-Secure ID PROTECTION master password recovery code as soon as you have taken F-Secure ID PROTECTION into use. The recovery code is the only way for you to regain your F-Secure ID PROTECTION master password if you forget it.

    You have now installed ID PROTECTION on your computer, and you can start monitoring your email addresses and entering your passwords and other credentials into ID PROTECTION.

    • • If you already have ID PROTECTION on another device:
        1. Select Connect devices.
        2. Open ID PROTECTION on the other device that already has the app installed and go to Connect devices. The Connect devices page opens, showing a sync code.
        3. On the new device, enter this code in the Enter sync code here field and select Connect devices.
        4. Enter your current master password and select OK.

    From now on, your Vault data will be synchronized automatically between these two devices. If you want to connect more devices, repeat the above steps.
