8) Please e-mail this file to
support@optisolutionsusa.com . If you copied the path to the clipboard, you can simply compose an email and use your email's "attach file" icon (normally a paper-clip), and when prompted for the file, you can just paste (
CTRL-V) the path into the file name edit box, without browsing for the file.
9) You will be sent a password file to activate your software. Please keep in mind that these passwords are generated from Camtek Germany so please remember the six-hour time difference. When you receive the new file back, please open it on the computer where the OPTICAM dongle is connected with the "Default Application". It will prompt you to load the contents of the file into the CodeMeter dongle, and once successful, the license will be updated.
