Moving a license

In the process of migrating servers it might be necessary to install File Processor on a different server and move the license from one server to another. Moving a license from one server to another means that you disable it on the old server and activate it again on the other. The action of disabling the license on the old server is called 'revoking'.

How to revoke a license?

On the old pc:

  1. Open File Processor
  2. Go to Options > Activation > Software License and write down your license information (license account and reference code).
  3. At the bottom of the Software License section you will see Revoke: disable license on this PC/server and move license to another PC/server.

    > WARNING: After revoke, you cannot activate again on this PC/server anymore!

On the new pc:

  1. Open File Processor
  2. Go to Options > Activation > Registration Information click Edit, fill in the registration information and the license information you have written. Save the registration.
  3. Go to Options > Activation > Software License and click Check for an activation code online.

The license on the old server is now revoked and your new server is now activated.
