Frequently Asked Questions

What is a License File / Unlock Code?

Historically, we have referred to activation codes for PHDwin Software as License Files.

As a result, people have become accustomed to terminology such as “Request a License” or “Can you transfer my License”.

However, we don’t actually generate individual licenses, the entity which can be an individual, corporation, or business entity holds a single license. That license governs how the entity may use or deploy PHDwin Software.

How many machines use PHDwin at a given entity is dependent on how many actual software unlock codes are purchased. As a result, we are trying to change our terminology to reflect this lack of specificity. Thus for documentation purposes, we will refer to the “License string” as a License file or Unlock Code.

A single-user unlock license file allows a single individual to access PHDwin V3 on a single machine. Access to the software is limited to the computer on which the software is installed.

This is our recommended installation type. It takes the least amount of time, money, and compute resources to deploy.

The standard installation only requires the .exe application versus the .msi application for network deployments.

Both V2 / V3 have different system IDs even if you deploy them on the same system. You will have to request an unlock code for V2 / V3 separately.
