Use the Deactivate License window to disable the currently active license key. You should deactivate the product license when you want to:
- Un-install the tool. You can re-install this tool on the same computer later.
- Migrate your installation from one computer to another. After migrating this tool to another computer, you will be prompted to complete the license activation process for the installation on the new computer.
To immediately deactivate the product license for this tool, click Deactivate.
Deactivation requires Internet access. If the computer does not have Internet access or is otherwise unavailable, contact Idera Licensing to deactivate the license manually.
How do I access this window?
When you start the tool's user interface, such as the SQL VDB Console or SQL Admin Toolset Launchpad, navigate to the Help & More menu, select Manage SQL VDB, and then click Deactivate.
For tools that use a command line interface (CLI), such as SQL Safe Lite, deactivation can be performed through the Start menu (for example, Start > All Programs > Idera > SQL Safe > Deactivate SQL Safe Lite License).
