This feature allows to move / transfer a licence with activated copy protection from a PC A to PC B. This is only necessary, when the PC, where the licence file is stored, has to be replaced or a user wants to switch between a PC and notebook.

 

If a network PC with a licence per PC or per User is replaced, this licence can be deactivated within the Licence Viewer - see Deactivate a network licence.

 

A license can only be transferred if the software was already activated. If the licence is in evaluation mode, then no transfer is possible.

 

If the transfer was successful on PC A, then the licence is sent to the Web Activation Server and the local licence is blocked (tamper detection ensures that no restore of a backup will work). The user can now install the application on PC B.

 

Depending on the type of workflow you are using, there are 2 different implementation options for transferring a licence.

 

 

 

In order to be able to use this feature you need the Web Activation Server.
