It looks like this problem is due to an error with the installer that causes a directory reference to be incorrect. This should only affect 9x systems (due to problems with the strippath runtime library function), and results in the activated Kaspersky license not being found.
We expect to have a new build available soon that will address this problem, in the meantime the fix is to edit the registry. Please make sure that you back up your WinGate registry file before making any changes. For instructions on backing up the registry file see the following
knowledge base article
Please open your registry editor and find the following key:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Qbik Software\Key Management\Products\Kaspersky AntiVirus for WinGate]
If you click on this folder you'll see the following in the right hand pane:
"Key Store"="SOFTWARE\Qbik Software\WinGate\License Manager\Kaspersky AntiVirus for WinGate"
"ProductID"=dword:00000004
"Product"="Kaspersky AntiVirus for WinGate"
"Key Folder"="C:\Program Files\WinGatePlugins\Kaspersky AntiVirus"
"Key Root"=hex:02,00,00,80
"ProductVersion"=dword:00000200
Check the "KeyFolder"string, notice that it's referring to a directory called WinGatePlugins, this is due to a missing backspace. There is no such directory, it should be the Plugins folder in the WinGate directory. So the fix is to simply add a single backslash between WinGate and Plugins.
So you'll have
"Key Folder"="C:\Program Files\WinGate\Plugins\Kaspersky AntiVirus"
After you have made this change please restart the WinGate engine, then reactivate your Kaspersky license.
