Overview

Please make sure that you download the latest copy of OLI software. Please go to the following section to view tutorials for downloads : Downloading OLI software

This is an example for downloading and installing the OLI Software on same machine as License Manager.

OLI has introduced a softkey version of the OLI Security Module.. This version does not require a hardware device (a/k/a usb key or dongle). Rather, a "Footprint" of the target computer is required to ensure uniqueness. Once created this footprint is unique per device and cannot be moved.


The Personal Softkey installation requires 3 easy steps:

1. Install the software 2. Generate a footprint (generate *.C2V file) 3. Apply the softkey (apply *.V2C file)


Step 1: Installing the software

Go to the location of your downloaded files. Right click on the file, run the executable file as an administrator.

Step 2: Generate a footprint

In this step you are going to generate *.C2V file.

Click the Collect Information button. This will scan your computer and compose a list of objects and then encode them in a binary format. OLI can use this file but cannot read this file. Under no circumstances will OLI Systems, Inc. share this information without your express/written consent.

This will launch a familiar save dialog.
