Hi

If I understood the question... :roll:
Go on System Tools in windows and start backup wizard. Choose from yourselves the folder with installed keys (AX NF ZZ), put some name and you will have a backup of every installed keys (less then 2Mb). This file you can send by email, and on the other PC, you just need to start restore procedure. :lol:

Hello!

You can use the official Siemens program Automation License Manager for that: look at License Key->Offline Transfer.
See ALM Help.

Thanks Umencho and Brainless helps.

Umencho Method:
It does not work. After i restored from what i had back up, the Lincense Key was created but Lincense show at Automation Lincense Manager, Number of the License = 0.



Brainless Method:
I had follow the way from Generate Start Code until Generate Activation Code. What the Request Code and Activation Code that I key-In is not valid. Finally it will delete my existing Key as well.
Once i load back using offline Transfer, the key does not Active.
Sigh~~~~

Any others way?

Brainless/ALM offline Method 100% but need generat text files with codes and attentiveness

You can test with keys from EKB_Install

Но для создания образа удобнее использовать любую USB Флешку.

ALM offline метод 100% работает, но лучше для кодов использовать генерацию файлов с кодами и быть внимательным в последовательности.

Потренируйтесь для начала на ключах из EKB_Install
