Inserting New License Information into an Existing License File

If you choose to have the new license information automatically inserted into an existing license file, you eliminate the chance for error and reduce the time and effort it takes for you to add the information manually.

To automatically insert the new license information, click the "Insert the new license information into it." radio button. Click Browse to locate the existing file, and then click Next. The license information is added to your existing file.

Note: The new license information is added to the end of your existing license file.

Overwrite an Existing License File

If you choose to overwrite the existing license file, you replace the entire contents of the existing license file with the new license file information.

To overwrite an existing license file, click Overwrite the Existing File. Click Browse to locate the existing file, and then click Next. The existing file is overwritten by your new license file.
