• Sign in to the My Kaspersky.
• Change the Kaspersky Safe Kids settings on a parent’s device (in this case, the passcode is your access code).
• Protect data in Kaspersky Password Manager (in this case, the password is the application’s master password).
• Protect data vaults that have been created with a Kaspersky Lab product.  

In case you forgets the password that you set for your Kaspersky product Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 or Other Versions, which can prevent you from changing settings. You can remove the password using these following instructions:
