Installing PixInsight
« on: 2013 October 18 13:22:00 »
I have an expired trial version of PixInsight.  When I purchase a license, do I first need to uninstall the trial version before installing a valid licensed version?  I ask this as there appears to be no way to get to a screen to enter a license key as is typical of some other software.

i don't believe so - you just need to put the license file in the right place in your filesystem and PI should find it.

Rob, thanks for the reply.  Will I be given instructions on where to put this when I receive a confirming email after I make the purchase?

Larry. See the FAQ in the main page. There are a few entries talking about the licenses.
