Kenwood Software Issue (NOT LOOKING FOR SOFTWARE)

[btritch]

Hello All, Let me start by saying that I AM NOT looking for a serial or product number to be able to obtain Kenwood Software, I already have that and have the software installed and have been using it for about 3 years now. The issue I'm having is that I got a new computer because the hard drive in my current one is failing, I have read that with the new Kenwood KPG D6N software that you can only have it on one PC at a time, which is understandable. What I need to know is if there is way to transfer it from the old one to the new one. I read something about how you could deregister it off the old one and reregister it on the new one, I tried that, however it still didn't work. I might have did it to quickly as I tried it instantly, Does anybody know how to successfully transfer already legally purchased software over to a new PC or had any success in doing so? I'm hoping there is a way without having repurchase it.

Thanks for any help or suggestions.
Brian

What version of KPT-300LMC are you using? They updated their servers a while back and you -must- use the latest version. I think it's 2.01 or something like that.

I think it's 2.01

You are correct. 2.01 is the latest version available. (5-16-2024)

Do I need to unregister the old PC from the license and add the new one, or will it allow me to add them both. I have the serial number, I just wanted to make sure I did the transfer process correctly.

Yes I have done that several times.
Do you still have all your key files saved?
If so unregister the old PC
Install all the software starting with KPT-300LMC then install the KPG D6N then drag and drop the key file then move all of your saved files you will good to go.

I do have the key files saved. I'll uninstall the software from the new one and start from scratch to make sure it's done correctly.

I appreciate everyone's help.

There is a nice PDF file with the 300 software.
