License an upgraded installation

There are some considerations for licensing when upgrading an existing Genero installation to a newer version.

Notes about Upgrading

It is not necessary to re-enter the license of the product if the new version:
  • Is installed into an existing installation directory
  • Is not a major version number change

When you purchase a new maintenance contract or renew a subscription license, a new maintenance or subscription key must be installed. To install your new key, you do not need to reinstall your license. Updating the maintenance or subscription key is handled separately. There is also no need to uninstall the old maintenance or subscription key.
