Kanguru Defender Manager Elite / Running KDMElite in Windows
2. Kanguru Defender Manager Elite
Kanguru Defender Manager Elite (KDMElite) is the client program preloaded on the Defender Elite’s CD-ROM partition. The user needs to login to KDMElite in order to access the secure, encrypted partition. KDMElite comes pre-installed on your Defender Elite. No installation on your PC is necessary.

The Kanguru Defender Elite is compatible with multiple operating systems. Running the KDMElite application can be different depending on the OS your computer is running.

If KDMElite does not start automatically:
1. Open My Computer and open the Defender Elite’s CD-ROM partition named KDMElite. The drive letter (e.g. D:, E:, F:) will depend on your computer.
2. Double-click on the KDMElite.exe file to launch the KDMElite application.
Caution! The KDMElite.exe file needs to remain on your Defender Elite’s CD-ROM partition at all times. Always run the application from the Defender Elite’s CD-ROM partition. Do not try to copy KDMElite or run KDMElite from your computer’s hard drive.
Note: Windows 7 users may not see the removable disk partition until you have logged into KDMElite. If you are running Windows 7 and for any reason need to see the removable disk before you log into KDMElite please refer to the instructions on p.9.
