With your device you cannot activate Knox at all, since your device does not have Knox.
Your only options would be:
1. set the Shield app as device owner
or
2. root your device.
Both options allow you to use the app manager part of the Shield.

You can't enable Knox on a Samsung device. Either your specific device model has Knox, or it hasn't.
Not all Samsung devices have Knox. If your model doesn't have it, there is no chance to get it.
The only case you can enable Knox is within an app that uses Knox (like the Alliance Shield X), of course only if your device has Knox.

After yesterday's monthly update for S22 Ultra, Knox license key is not valid anymore and even if Alliance Shi X is uninstalled/reinstalled will not trigger Knox validation.

Is there a workaround for this?

Thanks

Knox is not working on S22+. In my area I absolutely have to have a band switcher because the one it defaults to is so overloaded that even Google won't load. I use my phone's hotspot for Internet so without it I got no internet basically. If anyone knows a different way to use a band switcher besides this app please let me know.

Same situation with no ability to activate knox license on my Samsung A42 since today after software update I've done on September 5th at the morning. Quite strange cause it's been all working fine till yesterday. Another thing would be that I can't disable com.android.systemui. I mean ADB claims operation success then phone immediately restart but proccess has not been disabled at all after another restart,
