Software piracy is a worldwide epidemic and M-Networks is committed to protecting intellectual property through the latest techniques available. M-Networks requires that all our software be activated to ensure legally licensed customers receive the full benefits of owning their valid license.

Product Activation Overview

M-Networks Product Activation is an anti-piracy technology designed to verify that software products have been legitimately licensed. Our licenses are designed for one software installation on one hardware device. The goal of this activation is to reduce casual copying and hard drive cloning. We have designed the activation process to be a quick, simple and unobtrusive part of the installation routine.

Product Activation works by verifying that a software program's serial number has not been used on more computers than intended by the software's license. You must use the serial number in order to install the software and then it is transformed into an installation ID number. You use the M-Networks Product Activation Wizard to provide this information to us either over the Internet or by telephone. A license key will be sent back to activate your product.

If you upgrade your computer by replacing a substantial number of hardware components, it may appear to be a different computer to our software and product activation may fail. If this should occur, you can call the telephone number displayed on the activation screen to reactivate the software.

Product Activation Protects Your Privacy at Every Step

No personally identifiable information is sent to M-Networks during the activation process. For more information regarding how M-Networks handles the collection of information outside the purview of the activation process, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
