It is highly recommended that you backup your QLM License Server before migrating your products to a new client system.

IMPORTANT:

Make sure you NEVER  "upload products to the License Server" from the new system until it has the new product definitions. If you are presented with a confirmation to upload your products to the server, answer NO.

• Make a backup of the following folder, including subfolders, on the old system:
• %appdata%\Soraco\Quick License Manager
• Install QLM on the new system but do not launch it yet
• Copy the backed up files above to %appdata%\Soraco\Quick License Manager onto the new system
• Edit the profiles.xml file in a text editor
  • Locate the entries productsFile, queriesFile and emailTemplatesFolder

  • Repeat for all profiles
• Launch QLM 
• Go to the Manage Keys tab and click Sites
