Renewal of Kaspersky Internet Security for laptop and Android phone, detailed how to?

[Harish Kumar]

My Kaspersky Internet Security expires in another 6 days. It is installed in two devices, in my laptop and android phone. If I renew from my laptop, do I just get an activation code which I should enter in both devices? Or is a new software downloaded? In which case, should I activate from both devices? Or if it is just a new code that I will be getting, after obtaining the activation code, where should I enter it, since the license is still active and will be active for another six days. Should I wait for the current license to expire before activation?

@Harish Kumar If you are on the latest versions you can add your license code xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx e.g. one day before the current license expires

Thank you @Bernie for your prompt reply. How do I know that I am using the latest version?

[Berny]

@Harish KumarPlease point with the mouse cursor on the K-icon in the system tray. Actually the latest version is Kaspersky 2020.

@Harish KumarPlease point with the mouse cursor on the K-icon in the system tray. Actually the latest version is Kaspersky 2020.

There is no K-icon and the system tray only a shield icon which has become red, as expiry date is only 6 days away.

 

The version information displayed when I am hovering my mouse cursor on the reddened shield icon is:

 

Kaspersky Internet Security 20.0.14.1085(j) 

Reboot is required (this is an issue and I will reboot to rectify)

@Harish Kumar When adding your new code, KIS 2020 will switch automatically to the new code when your current code expires.

@Harish Kumar When adding your new code, KIS 2020 will switch automatically to the new code when your current code expires.

Do I have KIS 2020 now? How can I tell? Is the code - Kaspersky Internet Security 20.0.14.1085(j) - indicative of KIS 2020? 

[Berny]

@Harish Kumar Yes you have Kaspersky 2020 , you can enter your new code in the application.

[Harish Kumar]

Thanks Berny for your patient help. I just renewed and I was taken to a page with download links. Should I download these installers, install the software, and then enter the activation code into them,

OR should I enter the activation code into the existing application which is still active. It expires after TWO Days

[Berny]

@Harish Kumar You are welcome.

You can enter your code xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx now , in 2 days Kaspersky 2020 will switch automatically from your expired code to your new code.

@Harish Kumar You are welcome.

Thank you very much.
