FAQ
This section contains some frequently asked questions. If you have any other questions about this module, please get in touch with technical support.
I have entered the license key and clicked on the validate key, but the license status still shows "Invalid"?
The software needs to validate the key with the Sigma Magic server. Hence, it would need to be connected to the Internet to validate the license key. If the computer is connected but you are still unable to obtain a valid status, ensure that you have the latest version of the software by clicking on Check Updates. If the problem persists, please get in touch with the Sigma Magic help desk for assistance with resolution.
What happens to the license key if my computer crashes?
The machine key is stored in your system registry, and even if your computer crashes, it should still work properly the next time you log in. If there are major changes to your hardware or software, you may need to reinstall the license key using the steps above for "Entering the License Key into the System." If this does not work, please get in touch with your Sigma Magic support desk for assistance.
I have purchased and installed the node-locked version of the Sigma Magic software on one computer. Can I move this to a different computer?
Your License Key is only valid for the computer for which it was purchased. If you want to use the software on both your home and work computers, for example, you will need to buy a new License Key for the other computer. If you experience any system issues, such as computer crashes or hard disk failure, please get in touch with the help desk, and we can arrange to transfer the license key to your new computer.
I have a computer that is not connected to the Internet. How do I activate the license key?
If your computer is not connected to the Internet, you will need to contact the technical support team and provide your unique machine key, which is assigned to your computer. They can generate a License Code for you that you can use to activate your license. Refer to the Miscellaneous section on License Management for more details.
