    For more information about deploying Forcepoint Web Security Endpoint, see the Installation and Deployment Guide for Forcepoint F1E.

    You do not need to uninstall the earlier version of Forcepoint Web Security Endpoint before installing v23.11 if you are upgrading from Forcepoint Web Security Endpoint v19.06. Versions earlier than v19.06 must be uninstalled before this version is installed.

    Important: If you deploy Forcepoint F1E using GPO, do not restrict access to the command prompt. The Disable the command prompt script processing also? option should be set to No.
