Do you have problems updating kaspersky Internet Security / Antivirus online? Do you want to update your Antivirus regularly ? । This post is in response to a question asked by one of my readers. He is a computer technician, who works with and repairs many pc’s daily, and he is a very busy person, so time management is important for him. He is a fan of Kaspersky and he recommends it to all of his clients.
As you know, there is no point in installing the best antivirus/internet security without being able to update it. Updating Kaspersky takes a very long time as their servers are damn slow. So, he asked me is there any other way to save time by updating kaspersky as quick as possible in computer’s with and without internet connection.
In case if you don’t have a internet connection you download the kaspersky update files from your friends pc, or from else where and you can install and update kaspersky in your computer with the latest virus signature database. Here is How to Update Kaspersky without Internet.
There is a tool called Kaspersky Updater that will download the latest updates for all kaspersky products, including the latest virus signature database and also the program components.
1.First Download the Kaspersky Updater Program from the official Kaspersky forums, you need to register there to get the program, else you can just google it, but its better to go with the reliable source to download the program. I am not giving the direct link to the program because, i am not sue whether it is legally right to give it directly. If every thing is fine i will post the download link
as soon as possible.
2.After downloading the updater utility, extract the contents of it in the same directory. The Updater and GUI utility must be there in the same directory. Now, start the KasperskyUpdater.exe program.
3।From the shown option, choose Download databases for the selected products and tick the boxes corresponding to the kaspersky version you need. Now click on Apply and Start. The program will start downloading the latest updates for kaspersky.
Now we need to configure Kaspersky to download the offline updates।------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- computer create the folder to store the update files and share either this or default folder:
- for Windows XP the default folder is \Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Kaspersky Lab\AVP9\Update distribution
- for Windows Vista/7 the default folder is \ProgramData\Kaspersky Lab\AVP9\Update distribution
By default the folder is hidden. If you want to copy updates into this folder, you are required to enable the option Show hidden files and folders. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Next configure the databases to be copied to a local folder:
1. open the main application window
2. in the left part of the main application window, go to the Update tab
3. in the right upper corner of the main application window, click the Settings button
4. in the right part of the Settings window in the Additional section, check the box Copy update to folder
5. click the Browse button if you want to change the folder to copy update
6. click OK to close each window
7. run update of anti-virus databases
To update computer(s) in the local network, share the update folder or copy the update folder on target computers. But first configure each target computer the following way:1. open the main application window
2. in the left part of the main application window, go to the Update tab
3. in the right upper corner of the main application window, click the Settings button
4. in the right part of the Settings window in the Update source section, click the Settings button
5. in the Update settings window on the Source tab, click the Add button
6. in the Select update source window, select the folder in which the databases updates were copied earlier and click the OK button
7. in the Update settings window, clear the box Kaspersky Lab update servers
8. click the OK button in the Update settings window
9. click the OK button in the Settings window
10. run update of anti-virus databases.
