Manage Your Product Licenses

To activate or deactivate your product license, it's always best to use the QNX Software Center (QSC). If, for some reason, you are unable to use QSC, both processes can be completed from your myQNX account profile.

Activating a license

To activate a license from the QNX Software Center:

  1. Launch QSC.
  2. From the Welcome screen, select Manage License Keys.
  3. Right-click the product's license key and select Activate, then click OK to confirm.

The activation enables product features and entitles you to use the product on your workstation.

If you don't have an internet connection, then you need to activate manually.

Deactivating a license

You may need to deactivate your license if you are switching to a new machine or no longer wish to use the product. Deactivation also ensures that you can conveniently activate your license on a new machine.

To deactivate a license from the QNX Software Center:

  1. Launch QSC.
  2. From the Welcome screen, select Manage License Keys.
  3. Right-click the product’s license key and select Deactivate, then click OK to confirm.

Deactivating a license manually

If you're unable deactivate your license using QSC because the machine it was activated on is no longer available or has been wiped, you can perform the deactivation from your myQNX account profile.

Note:
This option is NOT another method of deactivation. You should only follow these steps if you've tried to deactivate using QSC and it didn't work.

To deactivate a license manually:

  1. Log in to your myQNX account.
  2. Under the Product Registration menu to the right of your profile page, click Manual Product Deactivation.
  3. Click the Deactivate button under the product you want to deactivate. A success message is displayed, confirming that deactivation is complete.
