Use the seven-day trial
The trial starts when you first launch the app and includes all comparison features for seven days. When it expires, new comparisons and suite runs are blocked. Your workbooks, saved projects, and reports are not erased.
Reinstalling does not start another trial. If you need help with an evaluation, contact us. Any manually supplied trial code needs the Installation ID from the computer where you installed the app.
Find your Installation ID
Open Help & support. The About & support area includes a License card. Click Copy Installation ID. The license-status badge at the top of the app also opens Trial and license, where Copy ID copies the same computer’s identifier.
Send that ID with your order information when requesting a paid activation code. It identifies the installation the code will activate; a code issued for another computer will not work here.
Enter the activation code
- Choose Activate license in the License card or open the license-status badge.
- Paste the complete code into the License code box.
- Click Activate license in the dialog.
- Check that the license status updates successfully.
A paid license covers one computer. Activation is handled manually, with codes emailed within one business day after we receive both payment and the Installation ID. The planned offer includes Workbook Compare Pro 1.x updates; see the current purchase page and terms for availability and details.
License validation runs locally. You do not need an ongoing connection to a licensing server to use an activated copy.
If a code is rejected
Make sure you copied the full code, used the ID from this computer, and did not paste an order number or transfer receipt instead. A released installation cannot be reactivated with its old code.
Contact us with the error message and your order reference. Do not post activation codes publicly. If you are moving to another computer, follow the transfer steps first.
