+### Will a watermark and license banner appear if I use a Kendo UI for Vue version that was released prior to v.3.14.0?
+
+If you have a valid license activated for your project, you won't get any [invalid license attributes](#toc-invalid-license).

 ### Does the license key expire?
 
 Yes, the license key expires at the end of your support subscription.

 An expired license key is valid for all Kendo UI for Vue versions _published before its expiration date_. The publish date of each version is available in the [Kendo UI for Vue changelog](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui/components/changelogs/ui-for-vue/).
 
+### I am using Vite in my project. I can't hide the invalid license watermarks, banner, and console warning even though the license activation is successful. What should I do? 
+
+The described scenario happens in Vite context and most often when you have previously activated a commercial or trial license in your project and now you want to renew this license. In the discussed case, once you run `npx kendo-ui-license activate`, the console message says you have successfully activated your license but in fact, all [invalid license attributes](#toc-invalid-license) are still presented. 
+
+The reason for the issue is that Vite is not updating its cache after the licensing command is executed. To make the warning disappear:
+1. Delete the `.vite` folder in the `node_modules` folder of the project.
+1. Execute the `npx kendo-ui-license activate` command. 
+
+### I updated the version of the Kendo UI for Vue packages in my project and the invalid license attributes appeared. How to hide these items?
+
+If this happens, the possible reason is that the end date of the license activated in your application is before the release date of the newly installed Kendo UI for Vue packages. To fix this issue:
+1. [Download a new license key](#toc-download-your-license-key).
+1. [Activate the new license key](#toc-install-or-update-a-license-key) in your project. 
+
 ### Do I need an Internet connection to activate the license?
 
 No, the license activation and validation are performed entirely offline.
