Hiya
All our "developer" ranorex licenses are currently installed on Windows XP PC's
Our company is moving to Windows 7, and making all PC's dual boot XP/Windows 7
My question is then, if we install ranorex license on the Windows 7 OS instance, does it count as the same
license as the XP instance?
Thanks

Re: Dual Boot License
I think if you interpret this post about virtual machine licenses a certain way you could make a case for this to be a legitimate use of a license: http://www.ranorex.com/forum/licensing- ... t1044.html
However, you would need to make sure that your Win7 machine and XP machine have the same host name. Which, if they are supposed to live in the same AD branch, may cause issues. If they live in different AD branches you should be fine. You would also need to verify that neither machine would be running simultaneously.
Caveat: the above interpretation of license usage is just a possible suggestion and may not necessarily be valid under Ranorex rules. I suppose we need the support team to make that final determination.

Hi,
When moving your license simply ensure that the target PC uses the same host name as the old machine.
It should be no problem to move it from a XP to aWin7 system.
