Description

If you need to know the name of the standard KSC service account (KL-AK...) that has been created during installation, it is stored in the registry key.

This information can be viewed in the registry, using the following paths:

for 64-bit systems:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\KasperskyLab\Components\34\1093\1.0.0.0

for 32-bit systems:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\KasperskyLab\Components\34\1093\1.0.0.0

this key is called AutoCreatedServiceAccount.

It can also be quickly obtained with the following commands:

For 64-bit systems

reg Query "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\KasperskyLab\Components\34\1093\1.0.0.0" /v AutoCreatedServiceAccount

For 32-bit systems

reg Query "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\KasperskyLab\Components\34\1093\1.0.0.0" /v AutoCreatedServiceAccount
