License activation

Activate without creating an account.

A signed plan entitlement is bound to this computer using a privacy-preserving device identifier and continues to verify offline.

01

Activate

Open Lexyte → Settings → License, paste the key from the purchase email, and select Activate. Internet access is needed for initial activation and occasional term, renewal, and revocation checks—not for ordinary local protection.

02

Plan limits

Personal and Founding Member permit one active personal-use PC. Family permits up to five household PCs. Business plans permit their stated number of business-owned PCs. The signed claim carries the plan ID, billing model, seat count, term dates, and feature entitlements.

03

Replace a computer

On the old computer, open License and choose Deactivate. If that computer is unavailable, contact support from the verified purchase email. Replacement remains subject to the approved bounded replacement policy.

04

Offline behavior

The client verifies a cryptographically signed, device-bound activation locally. Subscription licenses include a bounded offline grace period; an unknown revocation result must not be presented as confirmed valid.

05

Never share a key with a caller

A license key proves a purchase; it does not prove a caller is Lexyte support. Support will not ask for the Security PIN, recovery code, passwords, or remote control.
