What is Product Activation?
 
The activation technology integrated into your product is intended to prevent illegal copying and distribution of software and it is an additional mean allowing to provide customers with a confidence in the quality of the product purchased.
 
In order to use such a protected product, it has to be activated first.
 
When running the application for the first time, an activation window appears prompting to select an activation mode (or asking to enter a Serial Number without selecting a mode). If you are reading this page, this means that you have selected the manual activation mode. The product activation is easy and convenient.

1. Specify a Serial Number for the product and a Hardware Code on the page 'Product Activation'. The Hardware Code is automatically generated by the application and displayed in the corresponding field of the activation window.
2. Wait a moment while the Serial Number and the Hardware Code are being verified.
3. Write down the generated Activation Key or save it to a file and then enter it in the activation window.

If product reactivation is required, obtain another Activation Key using the same Serial Numbers and following the steps 1-3.
 
Where do I obtain a Hardware Code?
 
The Hardware Code is an encoded characters string containing information on the hardware installed on the computer the product is being run on. When the application requires activation (at the first launch or after the Activation Key has expired), it automatically analyzes the hardware and generates a unique Hardware Code required to perform the product activation.
Attention! Every time different Hardware Codes are generated.

 
What do I do if I lose my Activation Key?
 
If the Activation Key has been lost, go to the page 'Product Activation' to obtain it using the same Serial Number and Hardware Code or obtain another Activation Key using another Hardware Code generated for your system. To obtain a new Hardware Code, launch the application holding the <Shift> key. If no more activations are available for the Serial Number, contact the product technical support to acquire a new Serial Number.
