Licensing Issues

Do I have to reinstall if I have been using an evaluation version and purchase the software?

No, all you should need to do is import the license.dat file. The license.dat file turns an evaluation version (which is basically just the same binary without a license file) into a licensed version (either commercial or non-commercial, depending on the contents of the license file). This means that you don't necessarily need to download the binary again, if you have been evaluating the software and then decide to purchase a commercial (or non-commercial) license. This makes life easier if you have a slow Internet connection.

Use the Import License option from the Help menu to import the license.dat file into the SSH Secure Shell for Workstations Windows client. (Browse the directory tree to select the appropriate license.dat file).
