HOW TO PURCHASE OR RENEW A LICENSE If you have installed Kaspersky Anti-Virus without a license, you can purchase one after installation.

When the validity term of the current license expires, Kaspersky Anti-Virus will be automatically activated using the reserve activation code. To purchase a license: 1. Open the main application window. 2. Click the Manage License link in the bottom part of the main window to open the Manage License window. 3. In the window that opens, click the Buy activation code button. The eStore web page opens, where you can purchase a license.
