What are Activation Licenses?

Activation (trusted storage) licensing is a more user-friendly way of licensing your product.
No hardware identification (SIM, Ethernet, or disk id) is required.
Activation can be done directly from your workstation (assumes Internet access).
Activation can be also be done indirectly or 'offline', from another computer with Internet
access.
Activation can be checked back in and checked out for use at another workstation.
Retrieving a standalone activation license online
1. Run the Kubotek License Wizard
To run the wizard directly use the Windows menu: (Start>All Programs>[product name]>Register
[product name]/License Wizard).
Alternatively you can start your product and if no license is available the program will ask you if you wish
to run the wizard.
To retrieve a license click on “Activate a purchased license”
2. Enter the Product Code and Activation Code
Note the Product Code and Activation Code are emailed to you as the last step in processing your
activation license order. If you do not have them please contact the person who ordered your product
or contact Customer Support.
a) Enter the Product Code (i.e. K0SB-Activation 11.0.0).
b) Enter the Activation Code (i.e. 1111-1111-1111-1111)
c) Assuming this computer is online select the option “Connect to the Kubotek activation server
directly over the Internet”. Note: The offline selection is covered in a separate document.
d) When everything is entered click “Activate” to retrieve your activation license.
3. License retrieval complete
When the license has been retrieved you will see a “Licensing Finished” message
4. Common Errors
If you receive a “Failed to connect…” error when attempting to activate your license, the transaction to
the Internet may be getting blocked by your physical connection to your network or possibly by your
anti-virus or firewall. Check your wired or wireless connection. If that is ok, try temporarily turning off
the anti-virus and/or firewall and try again. If you can connect with either of these turned off then you
will need to modify your system to allow the transaction.
If you receive the “…product specified is inconsistent…” message, it typically means you have a
misspelling in your product code.
If you receive “Activation yields no rights to a license” this means that you have a misspelling in your
activation code.
5. Viewing the retrieved license
If you wish to see the activation license, restart the Kubotek Server License Wizard and select “Manage
current license activations”.
Returning a standalone activation license
Returning a license is used when you wish to move to another workstation.

3. Select the license to return
a) If you only have one license it will be displayed. If you have more than one, select the license
you wish to return (highlighted).

d) Click Cancel to exit or backup to the main menu to continue
Download a temporary “Home Use” license from Kubotek
If you regularly work at home, this option will allow you to retrieve a certificate license (license file). This
is a temporary license that expires with your maintenance.
This license is granted on the condition that you are on active maintenance and that it is not used
simultaneously with your permanent license.
If you renew your maintenance and download a new version of the software, you will need to renew
this license as well in order to run the new software.
Please note that the home use option is not available for all products.
