Hi guys, sorry for not responding, i gave up on this back when i was working on it, and decided to let the subscription expire, so it did and i just tried the activation code again and it worked, so no issues, program is running like it should and everything is updated and working fine. So for those with possible similar issue just let it expire and then either renew or enter an activation code. Thanks anyways for the help, sorry for the lack of response before. Cheers!

Ok i setup another user, downloaded the start.exe as i had on the other user, ran it and got the same error. I was looking at these two paths TEMP=C:\Users\Gunter Severloh\AppData\Local\Temp TMP=C:\Users\Gunter Severloh\AppData\Local\Temp and there is no TMP path unless im blind i dont see it. What else can we do?

Sorry for the delay had to get to bed, will try that now, and get back to you on what happens.

Another user account? Like on the website here? Idk if a new account would make any difference i mean if the installer is installing into a specific path, or folder, wouldn’t the same installation attempt basically do the same thing? Also idk how that would work, having a new account while having a license linked to a specific account, would probably deny me access, or rights to use, cant say. So your suggesting to create a new account on the website and then just reinstalling the exe i have, or what did you have in mind? I have a startup.exe and kis21.2.16.590en_es_25815.exe i got from my email confirmation, both do the same exact thing, and i get the same exact error.

Nope, same problem, did the reinstall and got the same messages. Cant renew, and it wont let me install, so invalid character according to the error message, idk what am i supposed to do with that, never had this issue before.

Ok i figured it out the CMD, apparently i was putting in ‘set’ as you have it, anyways this is what i have, does it look correct?

Please open a CMD window and run the command 'set'. How do i do this? using the command prompt?

Hello, My Kaspersky internet securty subscrition expired i paid for 3 years in 2015, i had issues with renewing so it wouldn’t allow me, idk why, and there is no option, button anywhere on the program to renew. I ended up rebuying the Kaspersky Internet Security, i downloaded the package via email reciept and then begin to install, the progress bar on the installation would get halfway and then stop and an error box would popup it says: Application Installation error 1324 The path C: contains an invalid character never had this issue before, never had to reinstall before, as i was able to renew back in 2015, now idk what the issue is. heres screenshot of the error: I just did a full computer scan with Kaspersky, took about an hour and my computer is clean. Is there a way i can just renew trough the program, instead of having to reinstall? My computer specs are Win 10x64 bit Intel I7-700K Nvidia GTX 1080 Ram is 32gb @ 3600mhz PSU - Evga 1000watt OS is on an SSD How do i fix this?
