USB Dongle License Key

The USB dongle provides the utmost ease and flexibility for moving the INGEAR.NET license across computers.  The USB dongle key is offered as an option to the current software-based license activation for the Developer Edition only.

The USB dongle option provides the following features and benefits

  • Preprogrammed with license(s) for the INGEAR software titles you've purchased.

  • Plug dongle into any USB port for immediate software use.

  • Troubleshoot/debug applications without installing software-based license.

  • Does not require system-level drivers or services to be installed for operation.

  • Single dongle can support multiple INGEAR licenses.

  • Licenses can be added or upgraded via email.

  • Backup / Restore license on USB dongle.

  • Retains existing software-based activation.

  • Supports Windows 32-bit and 64-bit operating systems

 

The USB dongle adds an "either-or" dimension your INGEAR license.  The INGEAR.NET class library will attempt to locate the USB first.  If the USB dongle is detected, the software-based activation is ignored, regardless whether the license is Developer or Runtime.  If the USB dongle is not detected, the INGEAR.NET class library defaults to the software-based license activation.

USB Key is not supported on Compact Framework Edition.
