5.5. Changing a 5.x Concurrent Client to a Standalone License

Applies to:
All Palisade network software, release 5.x
(For 6.x network software, see Changing a 6.x Concurrent Client to a Standalone License.)

Question:
We have a concurrent network license, and we want to give one user an independent (standalone) license but keep the other users on the network license.  Can this be done?

Response:
Yes, with one caution: If you have multiple Palisade products on a given workstation, they must be either all standalone or all network licenses; you can't mix standalone and network Palisade software on one workstation.

Please follow this procedure to change a network license to standalone for just one user:

1. Contact your Palisade sales representative to purchase the standalone license.

2. On the client workstation, use Control Panel » Programs and Features (or Add or Remove Programs) to uninstall the Palisade software.

3. Open Regedit and delete this key in the System Registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\FLEXlm License Manager\PALISADE_LICENSE_FILE
Or in 64-bit Windows delete this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WOW6432node\FLEXlm License Manager\PALISADE_LICENSE_FILE

4. Install the new standalone software.
