Missing WireGuard configuration option in My Kaspersky

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to set up a WireGuard connection. According to the support page, configuration files for 3rd-party clients should be available for download at https://my.kaspersky.com/VPN after logging in.

I recall seeing this option a few months ago, but I didn't have the chance to try it then. Now that I actually need it, the option seems to have disappeared from the page. Could you please help me find where it is or let me know if something has changed?

As you can see in the attached screenshot:

Thanks in advance!

According below official announcement from Kaspersky :

Quote

" Due to an update of the VPN infrastructure :

All VPN users will see a new agreement in the app which they need to accept.
The number of available VPN servers will change from ~105 to ~85, most common servers will remain. 
The router feature, protocol selection and dual VPN options will disappear. We’re continuing to expand coverage and add new features in upcoming updates. "

tbh, this is a big screw up on your part.

only people remaining on PC platform are power users and gamers (which you can also consider to be a power user cuz apparently you are somehow genius if you can use keyboard in 2026). with many of the non-kernel mode games (which is 99.99% of them btw) being supported on linux, you can pretty much assume there is going to be a considerable migration.

(this shows 74% of games on steam, platinum+gold, are playable)

with (a) microsoft shoving ai-bloat and (b) a mandatory os release with vibe-coded start menu which takes literal seconds to load and file explorer which is preloaded during boot cuz it takes minutes to initialize, their userbase has become too much alienated that linux desktop users have almost tripled since 2025. now, every 1 in 20 person uses linux desktop all over the world.

coming to a VPN service, there are 3 things a user expects from a VPN service:

  • privacy: although this is a total bullcrap, most users expect anonymity on their service.
  • avoiding georestrictions: they want to watch/listen etc. things otherwise blocked on their country by service provider.
  • avoiding government restrictions: they want to evade their governments' very-carefully-thought-and-considered™ restrictions.

now, look at "privacy" above and think again. cuz "privacy" starts with "deleting windows" first.

now that my rant is over, i want to ask a couple of questions for the sake of other fellow linux users here:

  • is this decision (not supporting wireguard or openvpn) going to be permanent? do you plan to get this feature back?
  • if not, do you plan to release at least a browser extension like other sensible vpn service providers (preferably on firefox, or on its engine, cuz chrome is as good as windows, which wraps up to being as bad as it)?

thank you in advance.
