Getting them to enter the account details manually and change the self-defense settings is possible, but this is not a solution to the problem I am posting about, it is merely a workaround. So consider this a thought experiment of “what if nobody is available to physically access the computer?” The problem is that the self-defense is configured in such a way that the software cannot be installed and activated remotely, since interaction is not possible. And the settings to enable remote interaction can also not be reached since to use the GUI you need the software to be activated with the My Kaspersky account in the first place. The fact that the software is preventing remote interaction at the login stage of the installation is a design flaw and counter-productive because yes you’ve now protected the software from being changed remotely, but in doing that you have prevented the software’s protection from being activated at all since that is only done after successfully signing in. It’s a case of “congratulations, you played yourself” For example if this was a headless computer it would not be possible to install or activate this product. This seems like a big oversight in design, or even a defect. If there are no solutions to this problem that doesn’t involve physical interaction with the computer, please point me to where I can raise this as a bug or defect?
