Description
Select a Windows Installer package containing the applications that you want to
license-enable. After you select an .msi file, all executables in that package are
listed in the Select Executable File(s) to License Inject list.
By default, this list only contains executables that also have associated shortcuts,
and all of these executables are selected. This option can be unselected and all
executables in the package will display in this list.
If multiple executables are selected, the option to treat selected executables as a
suite becomes available (by default, all executables with shortcuts are displayed
and selected, so this option is by default enabled). If the administrator selects this
option, they need to specify a name for the suite they are creating. If you select
multiple executables and do not treat them as a suite, then each executable
creates its own license file with identical options to other selected executables.
By default, only the applications with a shortcut are listed in the Select Executable
File(s) to License Inject list. To list all of the executables in the selected Windows
Installer package, select this option.
When a suite is created, all applications in the suite operate under a single license.
In this case, a license represents the ability to run each of those executables
concurrently. For example, if you had a suite consisting of Word.exe, Excel.exe,
and PowerPoint.exe, you would be able to run one instance each of them
simultaneously and still only use a single license for the suite. If you select multiple
executables and do not treat them as a suite, then each executable creates its own
license file with identical options to other selected executables. If you select this
option, enter a Suite name to identify the suite.
Select this option to encrypt the original executable file(s) to prevent users from
circumventing license restrictions by running the non-license-injected versions of
the executables.
Caution • This encryption feature of FLEXwrap is not guaranteed because some applications
can be configured to discourage any alteration, and encryption of the application binary may
not be allowed.
