Upgrade installation

Caution: If dongle licensing is used, before you start installation make sure that the dongle is not plugged in! To do this, shut down the computer, pull out the dongle and restart the computer.

Note: Normally, the Prinect License Server software is updated via the Prinect Maintenance Center. Upgrade installations to more recent software versions also run via the Prinect Maintenance Center. Details about this can be found in the documentation of the Prinect Maintenance Center. If an upgrade to a very old version of the Prinect License Server software is to run or if there is no online connection to the Prinect Maintenance Center, you can also run an upgrade installation offline as described below.

Proceed as follows to install an upgrade of the Prinect Licensing software:

​1.​If you have not yet downloaded the installer zip file, open the Prinect Maintenance Center available in your network environment in the web browser on a computer that lets you connect to the Prinect Maintenance Center and log in there. If required, you will receive the appropriate URL and the login data from your system administrator. Go to "Product Installations" and scroll in the list until you see "Prinect License Server". Click the Download button. If you are asked whether the file is to be opened or saved, click "Save". The installation package is saved as a zip file in the Download folder.

​2.​In the file system go to the Download folder and unpack the zip archive. The installation data are located in the "Prinect License Server" folder. Open this folder and start "LicenseServerSetup.exe".

You must confirm a security prompt issued by the Windows user account control first.

​3.​Continue as described in the Full Installation.
