Backing up a license file
After installing the licenses on the system, the license files should be backed-up. This will
prevent license(s) being lost if the hard‑drive containing the licenses crashes or is formatted.
The directory should be saved in a safe location, preferably on another hard‑drive.
To do this:
1.
Stop all services of 'Bosch DICENTIS', including the
Bosch
DICENTIS
License Manager
and
FlexNet Licensing Server 64'
services. Always do this before performing a backup
and/or restore.
2.
To make a backup of trusted storage, copy
C:\ProgramData\FlexNet
to a backup
location.
3.
To make a restore, copy these files to the PC that originally stored them.

Notice!
The folder and files are normally hidden in Windows. Change the setting of Windows Explorer
to make them visible, by selecting: Organize > Folder and search options > View.
