Endpoint Protection

Hello ,

I have downloaded Endpoint Protection ( large file ).

I get a lot of zipped files that have additional files in them.

Im just trying to install Endpoint protection, but its not user friendly.

Too complicated, too many files, too many error messages when trying to install.

I want to contact support or making a case, i already have a SymAccount created.

The site asks me for a number, i only have contact support id, but its not accepted.

Im dissapointed with the complexity of the Symantec site and how to contact customer

support, no chat function etc.

What to do ?

Thank you very much.

Once unzipped, you should see a similar structure like below:

The SEP and SEPx64 folder are the unmanaged clients. The SEPM folder is the sep manager and what you will want to install and configure to manage all of your clients.
