Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 and HASP hardware key drivers are required to run the utility. The installers are part of Reliance Add-On Pack.

The Generate Registration File command chosen from the main window of License Key Utility is used to display a dialog box for generating registration files (lower picture).

When all required registration data is filled in, it is necessary to read the license key with which the registration will be bound. The Read Hardware Key Number command allows for reading and displaying the hardware key's serial number.

If a software key is applied, its serial number is stored in the so-called license file ($(PublicDocuments)\GEOVAP\Licenses\License.key). To read this file, use the Read Software Key Number command.

The Generate & Save Reg. File command is used for generating and saving the registration file. The generated registration file can be opened either in the development environment or in the runtime software of the Reliance system (Help > License > Register). The information contained in the registration file can be displayed, for example, in the About Reliance dialog box in the Registered user of this copy item.
