About the license key

The license key is a sequence of bits that can be used to activate the application for further usage in accordance with the terms of the End User License Agreement. License key is generated by Kaspersky experts.

To add a license key to the application, you need to enter an activation code. After you add a key to the application, the license key is displayed in the application interface as a unique alphanumeric sequence.

The license key may be blocked by Kaspersky, if the terms of the End User License Agreement are violated. If the license key is blocked, add another license key for proper application operation.

A license key may be active or reserve.

Active license key is currently used to run the application. Only one active license key can be added to the application.

Reserve license key is a license key that entitles the user to use the application, but is not currently in use. The reserve license key automatically becomes active when the license associated with the current active license key expires. A reserve license key can be added only if an active license key is already added.

You can only use a reserve license key if the auto-renewal feature is disabled for your subscription.
