HP Remote Graphics Software - Licensing Guide

2 Installing a local license key file
This chapter describes how to install a local license key file. The trial license and standard license are
both local licenses. A local license key file must be stored on each licensed RGS Sender computer.
Configuring the RGS Sender to access a local license key file
on Windows
The RGS Sender can be configured to access a local license key file either during installation or after
installation.
Configuration during RGS Sender installation
During RGS Sender installation (as described in the HP Remote Graphics Software User Guide ),
you’ll be presented with a dialog that asks you to install the RGS Sender license. For local licenses,
select Install a license file on this system, and click Next.
Browse to the location where you saved your license key file, select it, and click Open.
NOTE: License key files must end with the .lic suffix.
The license key file will be copied from the location you specified to the RGS Sender installation
directory:
●
For 32-bit Windows systems:
C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\Remote Graphics Sender
●
For 64-bit Windows systems:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Hewlett-Packard\Remote Graphics Sender
Configuration after RGS Sender installation
If, during RGS installation, you select I do not yet have a license file, you can specify the location of
the license key file post-installation in one of two ways.
The first way to specify the location of the license key file post-installation is to copy the license file
into the RGS Sender installation directory:
●
For 32-bit Windows systems:
C:\Program Files\Hewlett-Packard\Remote Graphics Sender
●
For 64-bit Windows systems:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Hewlett-Packard\Remote Graphics Sender
The second way to specify the location of the license key file post-installation is by using the
LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable. To set this environment variable:
1. Click Start > Control Panel > System.
2. Click Advanced system settings, and then click Environment Variables.
