Activating your license key

You can activate UltraEdit / UEStudio and unlock trial mode by entereing your license ID and password into the activation dialog. (You receive your license ID and password via email after placing a successful order online, over the phone, or via purchase order.)

You can access the activation dialog by any of the following methods:

• By clicking the "Enter license key" button in the trial dialog
• By clicking the "Enter license key" option in the File menu
• By clicking the "Enter license key" option in the "Support" drop down menu

An Internet connection is required to activate your license. If you do not have an Internet connection and need an offline activation, you must contact IDM support to obtain offline activation codes.

After entering your license ID and password, click the Activate button to finalize the activation and unlock trial mode. After your license ID and password have been validated, you should see a dialog indicating that the activation was successful:

Please note: If you purchased an IDM All Access subscription license, you will only need to activate your license one time. Once one IDM application has been activated on the system with the All Access license, all other IDM applications on that system will be automatically activated as well.

If necessary, click the Support options button and then the Proxy button to input proxy server information. For most users this should not be necessary as all IDM applications will use the proxy settings specified for Internet Explorer, if configured, on the system.

Offline activation

If online activation is not possible because there is no Internet connection available, you will need to use the offline activation dialog to register. To access the offline activation options, press Ctrl + Shift, then click the Activate button in the Activation dialog. This will open the offline activation dialog as shown below.

The License ID and Password fields must be entered as provided in your license email. The User Code 1 and User Code 2 fields will be pre-populated with numeric values. You must call or email this information to [email protected] in an email, and we will reply with the value to enter into the Authorization Code 1 field.

Please note: If any values other than those provided by IDM Computer Solutions, Inc. are entered here, this will cause the values in the user code fields to be recalculated the next time the offline activation dialog is opened. Please do not enter any values except those provided by our support team.
