Wonder why that is?
At the moment - launched only in Australia, New Zealand and The Pacific Islands. The rest of the regions will be launched later. Stay tuned.

Just now, I saw there are new products in Australia site.
All installer functions are the same, but privacy-policy changes from country to country.
Thanks for the sign-up link.
Might look at trying the installer on one of my PC's then. Didn't think it would be anything too important in terms of changes
Grabbed the installer (Standard) from the Australian site and I'm currently Installing it on a laptop over the top of 21.3.10.391(g)
Installation seems to take a while!

Waiting for the EU version, my license is just for EU products. In EU still 21.3:
Didn't think licenses where locked by region?
I've bought Kaspersky from Amazon UK and it's allowed me to install with the installer from the Australian site.
The download links you're looking at there are from either the .co.uk site or from your 'My Kaspersky account' I think?
Few things.
GUI
Not a fan of the email address being shown on the left hand side of the application. I'd rather this was just 'My Account' or 'My Kaspersky' or at least allow this to be hidden?
Data Password Leaker
Can this be disabled? Can see this causing a few issues or creating confusion.
If I install the license on other devices that belong to family members, it's going to be showing 'issues' with the email address tied to the Kaspersky account.
I don't need something else alerting me about breaches, or potential password/leak issues
PC Speedup.
Seems like this can't be disabled either?
Hmm. Feels like some of this wasn't thought through properly.

If I install the software via My Kaspersky, it install the country-specific version (in my case Italy), but I use the Global version installer and it works.
But why don't create a single unified installer and then it adapts itself regarding the region of installation?
This is one of the two complaints about software: the other is regarding to language specific version of some software, in which if you buy the French version (for example), then you can't have the English one.

In French version You can switch (in every system start) to English GUI with SHIFT + F12 key combination, and back with SHIFT + F5
I installed the 21.5 version with the installer from the AU site, and I discovered two things:
1) I tried to install the Premium version, but it switched automatically to the Plus version (because I have KSC)
2) Even if the GUI says "Plus", going into the subscription info it says, "Kaspersky Security Cloud" and, for example, the unlimited VPN that is included with Plus still doesn't work (in fact, I have only 500MB per day, which is included with KSC). Maybe I'll be switched when the new packages will be available in my country.

Yeah I think that's the short term solution.
Data Password Leaker & PC Speed-Up are enabled by “design” → cannot be switched off:angry: , we’ve logged this with support as well as the exposed email address & requested it be sent to Russia HQ experts/developers → we’re actually very surprised Kaspersky has released MR5 without a Data Password Leaker OFF switch, this issue has been outstanding for a very long time.

That's true, they should improve privacy and should give an option to turn it off.
In Kaspersky free version, we can turn off the data leak checker and it even hides our email address. But not in the regular standard, plus versions. I think they will update.

UK site still at Internet Security so after trying the USA version imaged back & will wait until Standard appears on www.kaspersky.co.uk/ 
Yeah. I've just stuck one of the laptops on it to get an understanding of what its like etc.UK site still at Internet Security so after trying the USA version imaged back & will wait until Standard appears on www.kaspersky.co.uk/
Waiting for the UK version too for the rest of the devices, not that there'll be any difference i wouldn't have thought.
Apparently you can turn off Data leak checker on Plus?
The standard for me doesn't have that option. Maybe it needs a clean install.
Edit: The more i look the more i feel like this whole thing is a mess? The options don't make sense, or there's clearly issues with products still?
- Kaspersky Free apparently allows you to turn off Data leaker, but standard doesn't?
- Kaspersky Free has the email address of the account partially blocked out, but paid products don't?
- PC Speedup can't be disabled and constantly pops up on the front of the Application homepage suggesting i use it.
