Licensing
License Types Supported in vConverter 5.1.1
Support is available for the following:
• Trial licenses with 30-day demo period.
• Perpetual license (QLL type Ongoing) with no expiration date.
No support is available for installations with:
• Trial license with an expiration date (no demo period).

Overwriting an Existing License
An instance of vConverter can have only one license installed at a time.
Trial licenses can only be installed on an unlicensed instance of vConverter, or on a
vConverter instance that has a trial license (expired or not). Installing a new trial license
over a previously installed license will overwrite all settings, in particular, expiration
date and number of systems.
Perpetual licenses may be installed at any time: installing over a previously installed
license (both trial and perpetual) overwrites a number of systems.
Embedded Trial License
When vConverter 5.1.1 is downloaded, it will have an embedded trial license with 30-
day demo period.
To activate a Continuous Protection license:
1 From the vConverter interface, click Help, then License Activation.
The vConverter Activation Wizard appears.
