Web KPM 9.2 Beta testing

[Alexander.Prokhin]

Dear beta testers,

We are pleased to announce Beta release of WebKPM 9.2 on MyKaspersky portal (my.kaspersky.com).

Important!

1. We are performing Beta on Production. When you update KPM to a new version, the cloud storage will be converted to a new format. Another KPM clients on your devices connected the same account won't synchronize until it will be updated to the Beta version
2. If you don’t want to use your current MyK account during beta-testing, create another one on my.kaspersky.com
3. If you plan to use KPM 9.0 after Beta, you need to make a backup of your current secure vault in KPM for Windows before testing (see guide for Windows)

Known issues:

1. Migration from current release version to 9.2 doesn’t work, if there are any accounts (web or app) in the vault (as workaround – update to 9.2 any other client and then start using WebKPM 9.2)
2. Incorrect migration from 8.6 version to 9.2 doesn’t work, if there are any accounts (web or app) in the vault (as workaround – update to 9.2 any other client and then start using WebKPM 9.2)
3. Editing app accounts in WebKPM 9.2 causes crashes of other clients
