Licenses

To start using A>V>C> programs you need to get a license. A license is required for both free programs and the trial period. The license will be written to one of your accounts (e-mail), but it is not associated with a workplace, Windows user and computer. To start working with the program, you must also bind the license to your computer. This process is called activation. One license can allow activation on one or two workstations. In the license manager (AVCOptions command), you can see all your valid licenses, their activations and the number of licenses not yet activated.

There are several types of licenses under which you can use A>V>C> programs.

- Annual license - License with a limited period - for one year.
- Unlimited license - Allows you to use the current version of the program indefinitely. But it does not allow you to update the program after a year of use.
- Free License - Only some of the free A>V>C> programs are licensed. Free does not negate the need for activation.
- Trial license - A trial license is provided free of charge for a period of 20 days from the date of activation.

There is no license for a month, for a day, for 5 years - use only what is on this list.

The cost of each license is indicated on all pages of the programs and in the general list.

To select the license you need, start the activation process. Please familiarize yourself with the merits and limitations of each type of license before you start activating the program.

When reinstalling Windows, upgrading hardware, or completely replacing your computer, you will need to go through the license transfer process.

Company licenses

There is no license for all computers in the domain. You will have to obtain as many licenses as you have jobs and activate them at each job separately.

In companies that pay for programs for several employees, it is possible to create only one account, credit all funds and all licenses to it. In this case, you must have a completely trusting relationship with all employees (including those laid off), because on their computers you will have to enter the address and password of the public account. And in this case, you will have to buy separate licenses for each user's home computers too.

It is much more profitable to create accounts for each employee. At the same time, you can make one large donation, but indicate in the note to which accounts you need to distribute this amount. Just list all your engineers' email addresses.

You can also appoint a manager who will manage all corporate accounts. By default, the manager is the one who initially sent the list of corporate accounts. The manager has the ability to request any transfer of money and licenses between accounts, the creation and blocking of new accounts, the appointment of other managers. To do this, just write an e-mail to technical support at avc.programming@gmail.com. Any order of the manager will be executed if the letter came from a known e-mail. You can keep a reserve of money in the manager's account and at any time transfer this money to new employees or replenish the accounts of old employees to purchase new annual licenses.

But remember that manipulations with corporate accounts (like any technical support request) can take from a couple of hours to several days. If you are worried about the continuous work of your employees, make sure that their accounts have enough money in advance to buy a new annual license.

Paid licenses allow you to activate two computers (office and home) for one user. But attempting to use a second activation for another user is a violation of licensing policy and may result in license cancellation without a refund.

Checking the license expiration date

You can check the validity of your licenses at any time. Call the A>V>C> Options Palette using the AvcOptions command and open the License Managment tab. In the upper list, you will see all activated licenses with an indication of the workplaces on which activation was made. In the lower list, you will see your non-activated licenses and the number of available seats.

Both lists will indicate the date the license was received and its validity period.

You cannot activate a new license until the previous one expires. But you need to take care of the balance replenishment in advance. Then it will take a couple of seconds to get and activate a new license.

An annual license is not a subscription!

Do not confuse time-limited licenses and subscriptions. The license for A>V>C> plugins cannot renew itself in any way, cannot write off money from your card without your permission. The license does not threaten you with anything. Your payment data is not visible to the A>V>C> server and is not saved anywhere. You can make one large payment and then activate annual licenses for many years. The balance of funds in your account will not evaporate anywhere, there are no expiration dates for payments. All your payments and bonuses are stored forever and can be used to purchase new licenses at any time. Activation occurs instantly, in 2 clicks, without interfering with your work.
