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