A license for ATPDesigner can be linked to two different information of the laptop/desktop.
- To the user's Windows username.
- To the MAC address of the laptop/desktop.
The figure below shows the licensing dialog that will be displayed automatically once the installation of ATPDesigner is complete. The text field License Name displays the Windows username and the MAC address, separated by a "|" (pipe).

The license must be applied as explained below.
- Delete the content of both input fields License Name and License Key in the licensing dialog.
- Apply the Windows username or MAC address and the corresponding license from one of the license data sets.
- Press the Confirm button.
If the licensing process has been successfully finalized, the license file ATPDesignerLic.ini will be saved in the directory c:\atpdesigner\exe. It is recommended that you back up the license file, for example in a ZIP archive. The license file validation results are displayed in the ATPDesigner message window after restart.
