Anyone know how to get around this on Mac OS Catalina? I am getting the same error on two different Macs. On one I completely deleted my application and downloaded directly from Kasperky's site, on the other I still have the old version on there, but it won't start.

Nevermind, just found out they don't support OS Catalina....in the process of getting everything canceled right now. If you're on a Mac, don't update to Catalina otherwise you will not have KIS working properly.

Hi jhusemann So sorry to hear about the issues that you got while installing kaspersky. As per support, OS Catalina should be supported with kaspersky. And a product support for the new OS was added in the patch A of the 2020 version of KIS for Mac. For this error message, all you have to do is to click on "OK" and allow kaspersky in the privacy and security in the system preference of Mac. Many thanks!

Thanks for the note, when I spoke to tech support over the phone they specifically told me it wasn’t supported, then later in the day they mentioned this fix. I’ve already canceled my subscription and my key will no longer work, so I’ve moved to another program.

Hi. No issue... I installed KIS 20 on macOS Catalina last Wednesday, right after OS update. And it works quite well The screenshot you have made is not new to Catalina: double-finger-clic to enable the 3rd option to bypass Apple's check, as usual. By the way, installation's last step "executing script" takes some time and is a bit capricious. But once the step passes, everythings is fine.

Hi, I I'm installing KIS 2020 on my MacBook Pro Mid 2012 macOS Catalina and it hangs in 94% I have waited about 60 minutes to install, but it doesn't move from 94%, and when I try to close the installer it says that it could possibly damage my computer....what can I do?

Hello Neojogo, Welcome!
  1. Is this the first time Kaspersky software has been installed on the Mac?
  2. Were all necessary system preparations done before installing KIS2020 ?
  3. Checking the (Mac) traffic/network monitor - is there any activity?
  4. Checking (Mac) Activity Monitor, are there any corrupted process(s).
Please let us know? Thank you:pray_tone3:

To show it really works. When the installer hangs at 94%:
  1. The first time, I forcibly halted the mac using the power button. This is not really a good idea: after that, KIS complained there are some missing modules. It is still possible to launch it then uninstall it to start over.
  2. The second time, it worked for me. However, I was hacking a bit. I am not sure whether it worked by itself of if it were my hacking activity that unfroze the installer. Namely, in a terminal, I lauched the script that was hung, looking for the step at which it actually hung. But in the meanwhile, the installer resumed and completed successfully. For me, it was: "cd /tmp/PKInstallSandbox.2seyCw/Scripts/com.kaspersky.kav.core.CFsDP9 && sudo ./postinstall". And now, everything works well for me.
This is my experience. Hope it helps.

I'm not as experienced as you with the terminal thing, but I really hope to get a functional installer from the technical support. //Mod edit: Please contact Tech Support, because that is the correct, supported solution at this time. This topic is temporarily and amicably closed, so people can easily discover the correct, supported solution. When new, important solution becomes available, this topic will be re opened. :)
