Licensing
License Overwriting
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.
License Handling — Embedded Trial License
When vConverter 5.1.1 is downloaded, it will have an embedded trial license with 30-

The vConverter Activation Wizard appears.
2 Click Next.
3 Click the Browse icon and browse to the location of the license file.
4 Click Open, then click Next.
5 The Congratulations screen appears. Click Finish.
