There are two types of key files.
Commercial key files
Commercial key files serve for activating legally purchased Kaspersky software and using it for a certain period of time. Commercial key files are usually valid for 1 year.
When the key file expires, Kaspersky Security 9.0 for Microsoft SharePoint Server keeps scanning files using the existing antivirus databases, but can no longer update them.
Commercial key file users are entitled to receive full technical support by phone and via CompanyAccount.
We recommend that you save a copy of commercial key files on some removable device.Please note.
Trial key files
Trial key files allow you to try Kaspersky software during a set period of time. Kaspersky Lab offers trial keys for free.
If you have used a trial key file to activate an application, you cannot extend your license with another trial key file. The second trial key file expiration date will be equal to the expiration date of the first trial key file.
When the key file expires, Kaspersky Security 9.0 for Microsoft SharePoint Server stops scanning files and updating antivirus databases.
