Commonly used installation properties

Command name Value Example
ACTIVATIONCODE=<value> Enter the activation code.
AGREETOEULA=1 Confirm your consent to the End User License Agreement.
AGREETOPRIVACYPOLICY=1 Confirm your consent to the Privacy Policy.
JOINKSN_ENHANCE_PROTECTION=1 Confirm your consent to data provision for product improvement purposes.
JOINKSN_MARKETING=1 Confirm your consent to data provision for marketing purposes.
INSTALLDIR=<value> Used to specify the installation folder. This parameter can only be used for Kaspersky Internet Security. kis21.exe /p”INSTALLDIR=C:\Documents and Settings\kis21″
KLPASSWD=<value> Password protect certain product features. If the value of the KLPASSWDAREA parameter is not set, the default password scope is used:

  • Change application settings.
  • Exit the application.
kis21.exe /pKLPASSWD=12345678
KLPASSWDAREA=[SET|EXIT|UNINST] Defines the scope of the password specified by the KLPASSWD parameter:

  • SET — changing application settings.
  • EXIT — closing the application.
  • UNINST — removing the application.

The option may have multiple values; in such case, the values are separated with a semicolon.

SELFPROTECTION=1 Enables the product’s Self-Defense during the installation. kis21.exe /pSELFPROTECTION=1
ALLOWREBOOT=1 Allow restarting the system if it is necessary. kis21.exe /pALLOWREBOOT=1
SKIPPRODUCTCHECK=1 Do not search for applications incompatible with Kaspersky Internet Security. kis21.exe /pSKIPPRODUCTCHECK=1
-oembackupmode Do not run the application after installation if Windows is booted in the Audit Mode. kis21.exe /s -oembackupmode

By using the SKIPPRODUCTCHECK=1 parameter, you assume responsibility for the possible consequences of the Kaspersky Internet Security incompatibility with other applications.

The SKIPPRODUCTCHECK=1 parameter only allows you to ignore those applications that should be removed manually.

Example of the compound command that allows a computer restart and skips the incompatible software check:

kis21.exe /pALLOWREBOOT=1 /pSKIPPRODUCTCHECK=1
