Hello @Erlang P, 

Welcome!

The License key is available in the GUI, to allow each Kaspersky customer, to manage their Kaspersky software. 

License Information window shows: 

• License key
• License status
• Number of hosts covered by the license
• Activation date
• License expiration date
• Number of days before expiration of the license

Not the Activation code

• The License key is also shown in the Support window. 

?IF (you) have concerns about the installed Kaspersky software security, password protect the application - follow: How to password-protect access to Kaspersky Internet Security management functions

Thank you?
