Kaspersky 2011 is now launched and like its previous version 2010, Kaspersky 2011 does not allow activation using a license key file i.e. without an activation code. However, one can activate KAV 2011/KIS 2011 with a license key file, using our old tip – How to activate Kaspersky 2010 license using a key file?
Kaspersky 2011 users need to use the fresh tutorial given below.
UPDATE: I’ve removed the old procedure because it was blocked by Kaspersky in new version. Below is a 100% working trick to activate latest version of KAV/KIS 11.0.1.400 using a license key file. Check the new method below:
Activating Kaspersky 2011 license using key file:
1. Open Kaspersky 2011 License Manager (from lower right corner).
2. Click ‘Activate the application with a new license’ button. (Delete any trial key first if you want, by clicking the red X next to the key).

3. Disable your Internet connection (either disable Network adapter from control panel or turn off your modem/router).
4. Select ‘Activate commercial version’ and enter the activation license code as 11111-11111-11111-1111X

5. Click Next, an error dialog box will open saying ‘wrong activation code’ as shown:

6. Click Ok and you will then get the option to activate kaspersky using a key file.

7. Browse to the key location on your computer and activate kaspersky.

i was in such a situation some minutes ago.but now,it works. you know how? just do what is written above step by step. don’t make it difficult,it’s so easy… it’s a kind to say Lie to the soft.give a wrong key and after,it will propose you to enter the KEY file. ok?
ur the best thxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
after the msg poped “wrong activation code” i have clicked on ok and it is getting back to the previous step;ie. asking for activation.there is no option of activation using key file
i had the same problem but when i disabled internet connection it was working…
hello!
I’ve been doing this for a long time, however, today my key has been blacklisted and i disconnected the connection then clicked on active with new lisence, then typed some numbers randomly into the key box. then i clicked to the next buton but it didnt come up to the window with browse box. i was doing this few years until now. hit me back folks.
version is 11.0.2.556
send me the procedure how ca i activate
Please tell me what to do when it asks for key location after clicking browse?
what is the location of key*?
They founded that trick, and probably pathced with new update
You have to deactivate your connection to the internet for this to work.
THATS IS WHERE I M STUCK RITE NOW
PEOPLE disconect the internet!!!
Thx buddy!! Its helps me.. Not as other tut.. Its simple and working!! *thumbs up*
Hi guys! I’m asking for “where is a valid key file?” I’ve downloaded a pack of key files, but all them are wrong!! Kaspersky Lab blocked any key file! Help me please!
(
You have to disconnect the internet and type 11111-11111-11111-1111X for the code – then it will give you the error message. Click OK and *with internet connection disabled* you will have to find your KEY file that came with your torrent and upload it.
Mine worked but the license is only for 37 days but that’s 37 more days than I had on my trial version.

DEAR.
SIR
HOW TO ACTIVATE MY KASPERSKY ANTIVIRUS 2011 PLEASE SEND ME ACTIVATION CODE.
hi, i bought a kaspersky antivirus and then i came home to install it, after i installed i had to activate it online so i connected the computer to the internet and i passed the procedures then i chose activate commertial versian and i wrote the code then it said(can not set up server connection).
what should i do?
many many thnx, tht was easy yet tricky
hi, could anyone send the activation code to my Emaill: waystriker@yahoo.com
I really need it.
tanx very good
I can’t find that version of kaspersky there is only 11.0.2.556 will that work as well
Use Nod32 … its better and lighter than this crap lol
HI to everyone
for those who can not use this there is a point !!!
you should first turn off SELF-DEFENCE and then you have to not connected to intenet
that’s it
everything went on well until when they told it was a wrong activation code… after that no option appeared as it is mentioned in the instructions… please help!!
the code is working with kis 2011 11.0.1.400 thanx a lot.
Theoritically speaking, it can only help those who are looking for piracy..
Reason 1 : Kaspersky Labs no longer provide REG key based activation for their home user product, namely single user license pack or 3 user license pack Internet Security or such.
Reason 2 : Now since Kasersky them self is not supporting REG Key donwload (my.kaspersky.com) from their activation center, then the only way a home or small business user can get the key is from a pirated source..
It is a bad move by kaspersky to turn off this feature !!!! Many of the PC i work in are not connected to live internet and only option left is Microsoft Security Essential for the reason..
you are making fooollllllll……………..last window doenot appear……………….
i have bought a kespersky CD for 3-PC so i have installed and updated, when i scan a flash then a warnning messege displied , and the virus which have been detected not naturalized , so how can i slove the problem ?
hey guys… try the above procedure in an offline mode.. it works like a charm..then if the key is not a blacklisted one you would be able to update your KAV/KIS.
THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!
but yar
mere pass keys nhi hai
oh kaha se mille gai
its ok IMAN.thank you to mmmmmmmmaah
Thank you so much for this helpful tool you shared us.
Good luck to you…….
After the wrong activation code dialog appear, then i clicked ok. But i cant find the Keyfile word… Is there any problem with my PC or my kaspersky?
Disconnect from the internet just before u click activate after entering “11111-11111-11111-1111X” it will give u an error “unable to connect to server” then show u the keyfile dialog
but what should we put in keyfile dialog???
same problem
After doing the key file thingy. It says that it is impossible to activate. What should i do?
Thanksss!!!
hey in last it doesn’t show any browse box…….it directly takes me back to the first page after clicking ok
it happens to me toooooo
What a crock. Getting to activate is a huge PITA.
I’m looking for the product key of Kaspersky Anti-virus 2011. Can you send them to my E-mail?
Thanks
How would the folder name and the name of the file that I would have to select? I missed that part.
Dear respective person,
Iwould like to request you that my computer, i had installed kaspersky anti virous but i am tring to activate it, I can’t able to sucess. please give right solution.
thank you.
yeah, my problem is same as Ajit (above me)
i had tried your trick, but activation using key form is never show
from what i see, you’re using kaspersky internet security 2011 (i’am using kaspersky anti virus 2011). i think there is a small different between them
thanks 4 the trick.. now i know why i always failed. I must disconnected from internet at first, then i do your trick, its really work. thanks
Thanks for the info. I’ve added that point now (step no. 3).
YOURE PRO!
my Screen with KEY FILE BROWSE wont appear when i click ok for the wrong activation code !!!!!!!!!!!!
Here the description for trial reset http://avtrialreset.x10.bz/KIS2011.htm
Thank you bro, this working version
i dont know where to find a key file. help me how to find it. please. thank you.
HEY GUYS!!!! PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THIS!…O.K so im presuming that all of you guys on here want to prolong your internet Kaspersky liscence without buying it again. Well there is an easier way to do so than the way shown on the website….I know it may sound strange but simply change the sate settings on your computer to the date when it was viable…for example if you downloaded trial on 10 th march 2011 and it ran out on 10 th April then change your date on your computer back to tenth of March….o.k you’ll have the wrong date on your somputer but hey you got free Kaspersky for another month…I hope this helps guys 8)
thank you but hé resta 30 day
thanxxxx very much dude…………….this really works………:)

Great Stuff. Thanks alot
