5.1 Software Key Activation – How it works
A license of Recover My Files is sold with a software activation key. The key is valid for activation on two computers (e.g. a desktop and a laptop). For more information on license options, see 4.2, “Types of License”.
The Web page will then return a 'Registration Name' and an 'Activation Code'. Enter this information into the Recover My Files product activation window and click next. Successful Activation. Upon successful activation of Recover My Files, you will see the following screen: Once activated you have the ability to save recovered files. If your product key isn't embedded in the firmware or you're missing your COA sticker, you're not out of luck as long as you haven't formatted your computer. You can still recover the key because Windows stores it in the registry. Open a new Notepad window. Copy and paste the following text into the window. Recover My Files 6.3.2.2553 Crack is the simple and effective data Recovery application that allows you to recover lost or deleted data from windows system. With the help of this program, you can recover data from a couple of document structures like exFAT, NTFS, HFS, HFS+, FAT(32, 16, 12) and others. Why Not Download Recover My File Alternative with Key Since the cracked version has many drawbacks and the official one costs at least $69.95, choosing Recover My Files alternative is a nice choice. EaseUS data recovery software is my recommendation. Get license code/serial key for file recovery software to recover my files. Since my lost files and data are more than 2GB, so I choose EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard. Recover My Files PRO 5.2.1: can perform hard drive data recovery, unformat and recover data from floppy disk, zip drive, smart media, compact flash or other removable media.
Recover My Files uses a hardware lock activation system. Each computer is identified to the GetData activation server by a 'hardware ID', a unique number calculated using specific internal hardware components of the pc.
The license may be installed an unlimited amount of times on an activated computer. Even if it is necessary to enter the key into the software again, it does not count as activation (as long as the hardware ID does not change).
Maximum Activations Reached
When an attempt to activate a license on a third computer is made (i.e. a computer with a new hardware ID), the activation server will return the message 'max activations reached'.
Moving a Software License to Another Computer
To move a software key to another computer it is necessary to deactivate and existing installation (if both activations have been used) in order to free a license.
To de-activate the software on your computer, please follow these instructions (an Internet connection is required):
- Download and run the GetData License Manager from http://download.getdata.com/support/LicenseManager.exe
- In the left hand column of the License Manager click on the picture of the 'GetData Virtual CmStick'.
- Under the Product list you should see an entry for Recover My Files. Click on it with your mouse to highlight it.
- Press the 'Delete' button. A confirmation message will appear 'The LicenseManager is now going to communicate with GetData License servers to update your dongle(s)'. Click OK to proceed.
The 'Debug Log' tab will report the status. A successful removal is identified by 'Update Success!'. When you return to the 'Dongles' tab, the software should no longer appear under products.
If software activation does not provide enough flexibility, the Technician license is the best option. In addition to the two software key activations, a USB hardware activation dongle is provided. The dongle has its own key making the licenseportable as the dongle can be moved from PC to PC. See the information about the Technician license below.

5.2.1 Troubleshooting online activation

Dongle Activation (Technician license)
