After removing Kaspersky Endpoint Security 10 or 11 from a client computer, the key file may still appear in the Administration Server’s Key usage report.

In order to free a license:

1. Open Kaspersky Security Center.
2. Go to Managed devices.
3. Remove the client computer from the administration group.
4. Go to Unassigned devices.
5. Remove the client computer from the database. 
6. Refresh the Administration Console by pressing F5 on the keyboard.
7. Go to the Administration Server and open the Reports tab.
8. Right-click Key usage report.
9. Click Refresh.

If Kaspersky Endpoint Security is installed on the computer once again and the entries were not deleted, repeat steps 1-9 for both the computer’s old and new entries.
