Résolution

Dell Data Security uses master installers that contain individual child installers for the software. The master installers are called DDSSetup.exe (formerly DDPSetup.exe) or DDSSuite.exe (formerly DDPSuite.exe).

Master installers are available for Dell Data Security Products:

  • DDSSetup.exe for Dell Encryption Enterprise
  • DDSSetup.exe for Dell Encryption Personal
  • DDSSuite.exe for Dell Endpoint Security Suite Enterprise
  • DDSSuite.exe for Dell Endpoint Security Suite Pro

Master installers are available for legacy Dell Data Protection products:

  • DDPSetup.exe for Dell Data Protection | Enterprise Edition
  • DDPSetup.exe for Dell Data Protection | Personal Edition
  • DDPSuite.exe for Dell Data Protection | Endpoint Security Suite
  • DDPSuite.exe for Dell Data Protection | Endpoint Security Suite Enterprise

Click the appropriate master installer for steps on extracting the child installers.

Note: For information about obtaining DDPSetup.exe, reference How to Download Dell Encryption Enterprise or Dell Encryption Personal.
