If necessary, use help on the package manager of your OS. Installation and Uninstallation of Dr.Web Mail Security Suite Components Installed from a Universal Package If Dr.Web Mail Security Suite is installed from a universal package and you want to additionally install or reinstall a package of a component, you will need an installation file (with the .run extension) that was used to install Dr.Web Mail Security Suite. If you do not have this file anymore, download it from the Doctor Web company website. Unpacking the Installation File When you start the .run file, you can specify the following command-line parameters: --noexec—unpack Dr.Web Mail Security Suite installation files instead of starting the installation process. The files will be placed in the directory that is specified in the TMPDIR environment variable (usually, /tmp); --keep—do not delete Dr.Web Mail Security Suite installation files and the installation log automatically after the installation completes; --target <directory>—unpack Dr.Web Mail Security Suite installation files to the specified <directory>. For a full list of command-line parameters that can be used with the installation file, run the command:
Prior to custom installation of Dr.Web Mail Security Suite components, unpack the contents of the installation file. To do that, run the command:
As the result, a nested directory named <file_name> with the contents of the installation file will be created in the <directory> directory.

Package files of each component are named as follows:
where <version> is a string that contains the version and date of the package release, and <platform> is a platform to run Dr.Web Mail Security Suite. Names of all Dr.Web Mail Security Suite component packages start with the drweb prefix. The installation kit is bundled with a package manager. For custom installation, use the installpkg.sh service script. Prior to that, unpack the contents of the installation file.

For example, on Red Hat Enterprise Linux:
If your OS uses DEB packages (including MSVS 3.0), or there is no package manager in your system (FreeBSD), for the custom uninstallation, you should use the zypper package manager, which is automatically installed with Dr.Web Mail Security Suite.
