Transfer a license

Modified on Mon, 25 Nov at 10:25 AM

IMPORTANT: Before starting the transfer process, please make sure that Windows 10 is fully updated and the latest HASP driver is installed!

If both systems do not have the same setup the transfer could fail and the license could be lost!

In case you need to move the license from one computer to another, you need to follow the steps in this chapter.

Download the “RUS” program:

You need a USB flash drive, or a network drive to exchange all the files.
The computer where the Software License is currently installed, is the ‘source computer’.
The computer where the Software License needs to be transferred to, is the ‘recipient computer’.

1. Collect Information About the Recipient Computer

On the recipient computer, launch the RUS program.

The recipient computer is the computer the Software License needs to be transferred to.

Click the Transfer License tab.

Press the ... button and navigate to the folder of your choice.
Enter a filename and press Save

Press the “Collect and save information” button

2. Generate the License Transfer File

Make sure the file “recipientInfo.id” from the previous step is accessible on the source computer.

The source computer is the computer where the Software License is currently installed.

On the source computer, download and launch the RUS program.
Click the Transfer License tab.

Select the key to transfer.

Select the recipient information file you created in the previous step:

Select a filename and location for the license transfer (h2h) file.

Press the “Generate License Transfer file” button.

After you perform this step, the SL key is no longer available on the source computer. Be sure to keep a copy of the transfer file on several locations until you have completed the transfer procedure.

3. Apply the License Transfer File

Make sure the “License Transfer file” from the previous step is accessible on the recipient computer.

The recipient computer is the computer the Software License needs to be transferred to.

On the recipient computer, open the RUS program, click the Apply License File tab.

In the Update File field, click the browse button and locate the license transfer (h2h) file.

Click the “Apply Update”-button. The SL key is now installed on the recipient computer.

To ensure the success of the transfer procedure, all the steps in the procedure should be completed within no more than a few days of the time you first start the process.
