Manual License Update
If your instance does not have internet access or if your dongle is connected via the network, you will need to follow the manual update procedure which consists of 2 main steps:
- Creating a license request
- Importing the updated license file
Creating the license request:
- Select Manual License Update
- Select Create License Request

- Choose a location to save the context file
- An email will be created in your default mail application. Attach the recently created context file to the email and send it to support@transoftsolutions.com
NOTE: Make sure you attach the context file you saved step 4.
Once Transoft has received the Context File and we have updated the license, we will send back the update file to be imported.
Importing the license update:
