   Installing ESET Live Installer with pre-downloaded installation files

   After you click the zip icon , the ESET installation files will download to your desktop (protect_data.zip). You can re-use the Live Installer file for the next installation of this ESET security product so that you do not need to download the installation files from the ESET servers again.

   When you are using pre-downloaded installation files to run ESET Live Installer, make sure that the protect_data.zip installation file is in the same folder as the ESET Live Installer .pkg file.

   

5. You have the option to Change Install Location before you click Install to install the ESET security product for macOS. You may need to type your computer password or use Touch ID to begin the installation.

   

6. The ESET Management Agent and ESET security product are now installed on your computer. Click Close.

   

7. Click Keep if you want to keep the installer file for later use or click Move to Bin.

   

8. To complete the installation, perform the following two actions:

   • Allow system extensions for your ESET product for Mac
   • Allow full disk access for your ESET product for macOS (7.x)
