Incorrect user name or password causes error update databases.

Application says cannot update as my username and password is incorrect. The application updates on my other PC, I have a 3 machine license.

Hello Bennie, Welcome! Thank you for the report and image, very helpful. There's a Kaspersky password reset tool: KLAPR - https://support.kaspersky.com/us/11101 Please follow the steps, make sure the procedure is done in SafeMode and REBOOT after running the procedure and seeing "The operation completed successfully" notification. Please let us know how you go? Thanks!

Also, in addition to what FLOOD indicates in the post located above this post, Maybe, instead of a Kaspersky application password, that is a Windows User password. Are you logged into Windows as Administrator, or User? Kaspersky update settings: Run As > Did you set Admin or User password?
