How To Reset Password Kaspersky Endpoint Security 11 Exclusive May 2026

  • Download or Locate KLBKARx

  • Run the Tool as Administrator

  • Restart Normally

  • Set a New Password Immediately

  • Why this is "exclusive": Most online tutorials incorrectly claim this tool only works for KES 10. However, version 11.0.0.6499 and later still support KLBKARx via the -clear switch in Safe Mode.


    Warning: resetting an administrative password or bypassing protection can reduce security. Only perform these steps if you are the authorized administrator for the appliance or have explicit permission from your organization.

    The procedure below describes two main approaches depending on what you mean by “reset password”: (A) reset an administrator (console) password via the Kaspersky Security Center (KSC) server/console when you still have access to the server or database, and (B) recover/reset local administrator password on an endpoint where the Kaspersky Endpoint Security 11 policy or password locks access. Use the method that matches your situation. Download or Locate KLBKARx

    If you need a different scenario (e.g., password reset for Kaspersky components in the cloud or a later major version), state that and I’ll adapt.
