Information about licensing
In order to activate the product after starting or to gain access to the Full Version at a later time, you must possess a valid license key. This license key is also called a registration code, serial number, or product ID.
O&O FileBackup needs to be licensed per computer; in other words, you have to purchase a license for each computer where you want to employ O&O FileBackup.
If you do not enter a valid license key, you will only be able to use O&O FileBackup as a trial version.
Enter license
- The registration wizard allows for a simple registration process.
- When you select the option Enter license code, a dialog box will appear where you can enter the registration code you received when purchasing the software.
- Please make sure that you do not confuse the digit “1” with “I” or enter any empty spaces where they don’t belong.
- Press Ok to save the registration data or Cancel to leave the dialog window without saving the data.
- When you have correctly entered the license code you will receive a confirmation in the dialog window.
If you encounter problems while entering your license key, please contact our Support: support@oo-software.com
If you do not enter a valid license key, you will only be able to use O&O FileBackup 30 days as a trial version.
Online registration
Once a license is successfully entered, a prompt will appear regarding online registration if your license has not already been registered online.
