Hi plsHelpMe,

 

Could you please brief us the scenario with the activation? What is the error message seen, if any, when you try to activate the license?

 

We do have the license transfer functionality with Freedome as mentioned in this article.

Yes, a license transfer would help to reinstall Freedome on this PC. Have you tried the steps menitoned in the KB article?

Hi plsHelpMe,

 

Please reinstall Freedome on this computer. If you have used up all your available licences when trying to install Freedome on a device, the app detects that your subscription code has reached its maximum number of installations (used licenses), and Freedome prompts for a license transfer.  You can find more information about the license transfer in here.

Hi plsHelpMe,

 

Are you using the recent version of Freedome installer for the installation (which can be downloaded from our website)?

Where did you purchase the Freedome license Key from?

 

Regarding the license code error, it might be due to one of the reasons mentioned here - https://community.f-secure.com/t5/F-Secure/Why-doesn-t-my-F-Secure-Freedome/ta-p/79111 - please have a look.

 

plsHelpMe

You can find information regarding the license transfer in this article.

 

If you choose the Transfer option:

• Your Freedome subscription resets itself, and all licenses are released from all of your Freedome installations.
• The device you are installing Freedome on consumes the first license from your subscription.
• All your other devices with Freedome installed automatically obtain the available remaining licenses when they connect to the Freedome servers.
• If you have Freedome installed on more devices than your current subscription allows, the last ones to connect to the Freedome servers will not obtain a license and remain expired.
