Install-License

This cmdlet installs or updates a license onto the current host. Licenses are host-specific, but can be exported and imported between hosts.

    Install-License

    • -FileName

      Install-License

      • -GetLicenseKeyFromClipboard

        Description

        Jump To:

        The Install-License cmdlet installs a paid-use license on to the current host.

        Licenses are host-specific, meaning that a license can only be installed on the host from which the license request was generated. Licenses can be exported from one host and imported onto another host using the Export-License and Import-License cmdlets.

        Examples

        Jump To:
        Example 1
          Install-License
>LicenseKey: 0000000000000000000
0000000000000000000
0000000000000000000
0000000000000000000
0000000000000000000

        In this example, no parameters are used which causes the cmdlet to default to the LicenseKey parameter. When the LicenseKey parameter is not provided, or is empty, PowerShell will prompt for the required parameter, which allows for the pasting of a multi-line key value.

        Example 2
          Install-License -LicenseKey 00a0a0a0a0d9d9d9d8f8gf9ag7878fasg87sa8fga68f7a687ga78f6g87a6sd

        This example installs a license using a single-line version of a license key.

        Example 3
          Install-License -FileName c:\path\to\folder\license.file.name.lic

        This example uses the FileName parameter to specify the name of a file that contains the license key text.

        Example 4
          Install-License -GetLicenseKeyFromClipboard

        This example will attempt to use whatever text is in the windows clipboard at the time it is run. Note: this version of Install-License will only function in an interactive window.
