Product: All TEKLYNX Software

Version: All Versions

 

To activate the software on a new workstation, you will need to deactivate the license from the current workstation first. Please ensure the software is closed before proceeding.

NOTE: USB hard key licenses activate and deactivate the software automatically when the hard key is plugged in or removed. To transfer a USB hard key license, install the software on the new workstation and then plug in the key. 

1. Navigate to Start > All Apps > [Your TEKLYNX Software] > [Your TEKLYNX Software] License Manager. Alternatively, search for License Manager from the Taskbar.   

2. Take note of the Serial Number, which you will need to reactivate your software elsewhere, and select Deactivate or Transfer to remove the license from the workstation. The Deactivate and Transfer buttons function exactly the same way, so you can choose whichever option you'd like.

NOTE: If you have an offline license and the workstation is not connected to the internet, you will be provided with offline deactivation options. We recommend using our Website. See the following article for more detailed instructions: How do I deactivate my offline license using the website?

3. You will receive a warning that states that you will no longer be able to use the software on this computer. Click OK to confirm. 

4. Click Finish from the deactivation confirmation window.

5. Once the software is installed on the new workstation, launch the License Manager and select Activate

6. Input your Serial Number and Password. Click Next.

NOTE: The password is permanent and would have been sent out with the serial number when the license was purchased. If you can't find your activation password, please call Customer Support at +1 414-837-4800 and provide them with your serial number.

7. Enter your company contact information. This is what we will use to recover your serial number if it is lost. Click Next.

NOTE: If you have an offline license and the workstation is not connected to the internet, you will be provided with offline activation options. See the following article for more detailed instructions: How do I activate my offline license using the TEKLYNX website?

8. Click Finish from the activation confirmation window. You may now launch the software.
