Mach 3 license install

Post by kcarpenter12 »

How do I put the license I have for Mach 3 on my computer so I can use the full version it says demo right now and every thing works but the plasma won't start or stop . Thanks

Just paste it in the main Mach folder.

Don't CUT and paste, COPY and paste, so you don't delete it from wherever you keep it.

Don't do it while Mach is running because Mach may need a fresh start to recognise the license.

I checked the Mach3 manual I have and searched for the word license. It doesn't actually tell you anywhere how to install the license.

Shut down Mach 3. Put it in the main directory where Mach3 is installed. restart Mach3. should be taken care of.

Always keep a copy of it on a different computer or flash drive. The more the better. Less chance of loosing it in case of a computer death....

After you put it in the Mach 3 folder and restart mach you should see your license name on the top line of Mach.
