Offline Installation

Overview

Offline installation or update of an SL key requires the following steps:

  1. Use the Key Management Utility to generate a Client to Vendor (C2V) file. This file contains a unique fingerprint of your computer.
  2. This file is sent to EasyPower technical support, where it is registered on the licensing server. A Vendor to Client (V2C) file is created for your computer. EasyPower technical support sends this file back to you in a response email.
  3. Using the Key Management Utility, apply V2C file to your computer. This completes the SL key installation or update process.

Installing or Updating Offline

To install or update a key without connecting to the Internet:
