A license key is a sequence of bits that you can apply to activate and then use the application in accordance with the terms of the End User License Agreement. License keys are generated by Kaspersky specialists.
You can add a license key to the application using one of the following methods: by applying a key file or by entering an activation code. The license key is displayed in the application interface as a unique alphanumeric sequence after you add it to the application.
The license key may be blocked by Kaspersky in case the terms of the License Agreement have been violated. If the license key has been blocked, you need to add another one if you want to use the application.
A license key may be active or additional (or reserve).
An active license key is a license key that is currently used by the application. An active license key can be added for a trial or commercial license. The application cannot have more than one active license key.
An additional (or reserve) license key is a license key that entitles the user to use the application, but is not currently in use. The additional license key automatically becomes active when the license associated with the current active license key expires. An additional license key can be added only if an active license key has already been added.
A license key for a trial license can be added as an active license key. A license key for a trial license cannot be added as an additional license key.
