Set license key
KONNEKT searches for license keys in two registry keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\GlueckKanja\Konnekt\License (REG SZ)HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\GlueckKanja\Konnekt\License (REG SZ)If a license key is set at machine level (HKLM), it will supersede a license key at user level (HKCU).
There are several options how you can configure the license key:
Option | Description | Use Case | Lic Key Storage Location |
Interactive Setup | Enter the key during the interactive setup | This option may be a good choice for a singular system. | HKLM |
Policy | Set the license key via GPO or Intune policy. | HKLM or HKCU | |
MSI Parameter | This option may be a good choice for environments with a software deployment system. | HKLM | |
Preferences Menu | Enter the license key in the preferences menu. | This option may be used for single user systems, only. | HKCU |
Entering the license key in the preferences menu:
The preference menu sets the license for the current user (HKCU), only. Other users logging into the same machine would also have to set the license.
If a license key is configured at HKLM, settings via preferences menu are not effective. (see Set License Key for details).
