Licensing

Orca3D uses a software-based tool to manage your license. This prevents unauthorized use of the software, but is as flexible as possible to allow you to quickly and easily license your copy of Orca3d, modify your license (to add modules, for example), and move your license easily to another computer.

Orca3D includes a utility to allow you to manage licenses installed on your PC. When Orca3D is installed, you can run the Orca3D License Manager:

The License Manager utility allows you to control your license using both offline and activation methods.

With this utility you can:

1.	Check the status of a license;

2.	Activate via the Internet, via two methods to suit your setup;

3.	Call or E-mail your license to get an Unlocking Code;

4.	De-Activate and Re-Activate your PC via the Internet when moving Orca3D from one computer to another;

5.	Manually move licenses to a new computer using removable storage such as floppies, USB Flash/Zip Drives, Mapped Network Drives, etc.;

6.	Produce an Installation ID that will be used by us to allow for the changing and/or updating of the license parameters on your computer;

7.	Permanently remove a license and receive a code to prove it.

To start the License Manager, click on the Windows START button and navigate to the Orca3D folder, then click on the License Manager Utility.
