Possible but not recommended

Thanks @venustus
Really dangerous ?
I remember that I installed KTS over KIS and did not got any issue...

No, both are different products and have different type of licenses... KSCloud paid (personal or family license) is a KTS with additional tools to manage...

Sorry I misunderstood.You meant to overwrite the existing KTS instalation then no as @harlan4096 said

So, if I want to go with KSC I have to uninstall KTS and I will lose all my tweaks (exclusions...) ?

 

[harlan4096]

Yes, probably

No your understanding is right, I want to know if it is possible to overwrite K Security Cloud over K Total Security because I want to keep my KTS tweaks...

 

[harlan4096]

But You may try to export and import settings, maybe will work, since both products have many modules that are the same...

I don't think it's possibe. Anyway, it will prompt you to uninstall the existing AV in order to be able to install the new AV.

You are right @ZeePriest , it is exactly what occurred when I installed KTS over KIS.
I will try with KSC ASAP.

I think you can switch products in the Kaspersky app, it you got KSC then I think KTS will change to KSC

I just try installing KSC over KTS, it asked me to do a reboot and than the installation finished without any problem.
