Renewing the license

By default, when the license has 14 days remaining before expiration, Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security notifies you about the approaching expiration. In this case, the License expiration date status is highlighted in yellow in the results pane of the Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security node.

You can renew the license before the expiration date using an additional key. This ensures that your device remains protected after expiration of the current license and before you activate the application with a new license.

To renew a license:

1. Obtain a new activation code or a key file.
2. In the Application Console tree, open the Licensing node.
3. Perform one of the following actions in the results pane of the Licensing node:
   • If you want to renew a license using a key file:
     1. Click the Add key link.
     2. In the window that opens, click the Browse button.
     3. Select a new key file with the .key extension.
     4. Select the Use as additional key check box.
   • If you want to renew a license using an activation code:
     1. Click the Add activation code link.
     2. Enter the purchased activation code in the window that opens.
     3. Select the Use as additional key check box.

   An Internet connection is required to apply an activation code.

4. Click OK.

The additional key will be added and automatically applied upon expiration of the current Kaspersky Embedded Systems Security license.
