Error "License has expired"

When trying to activate Kaspersky Free, you may encounter the "License has expired" error.

Reason

• Incorrect system date on the computer
• The license has expired

Solution

1. Check the system date on your computer. For instructions, see this article.
2. Try reactivating the application. For instructions, see this article.
3. If the system date is configured correctly and the repeated activation did not help, then the most probable reason for the issue is that your license has expired. Renew the license by purchasing a new activation code at a reduced price. For instructions, see this article.

What to do if the error persists

If the license term has not expired and the correct system date is set on your computer, submit a request with the detailed description of the issue to Kaspersky technical support: 

• Contact technical support via your My Kaspersky if you use Kaspersky Internet Security, Kaspersky Anti-Virus or Kaspersky Total Security. See the Online Help page for instructions.
• Submit your request through Kaspersky Small Office Security Management Console in case you use Kaspersky Small Office Security. See the Online Help page for instructions.
