Backing Up License Key File

The license keys are kept in a text file (.lic) located at RECOVERY(E):\LICENSE\gen.lic. When you change the removal hard disk, copy the file as back up. Even if you lost the file, you can activate the option again if you have the license number. You can re-create the license number at http://www.keysight.com/find/softwarelicense with your software entitlement certificate.
