The first time you run your EasyPower software, you are asked to authorize your copy. Authorizing ensures that you as a licensed user have access to the EasyPower program and features.
Before you can authorize the software, you must first install the software. See Installing EasyPower for information.
Before you run EasyPower, make sure your USB key is inserted in the computer, if applicable.
Note: You must have access to the Internet to activate your software. If you do not have access to the Internet on this computer, you will be given the option to create a file you can send to technical support (from another computer, for example), and you will then receive a file you can import to this computer to activate it.
Authorize your software, as follows:

Note: If your authorization code indicates this is a network installation, the software attempts to locate the server automatically. If the USB license key is not inserted, you will be instructed to insert it. If it still cannot be found (for example, the key is inserted but the server is located on another network), you will be given the opportunity to enter the server's IP address.
If the computer is not able to connect to the Internet to complete the authorization, you will receive an error message. Check your Internet and firewall connections, and try again. If you do not have Internet access on this computer, see Authorizing Your Software Offline.
