After purchasing a software license upgrade, reactivate your software by going to the Help Menu of the Sequencer and Re-registering your software. You do NOT need to redownload the software if you are planning to stay at the same release level (i.e. 4.4.16, 5.6.8, etc.)

Any license related purchase grants you access to use the software version available at the time of your purchase forever - no yearly fees or additional purchases required. This is different from your license level (Basic, Basic+, Standard, Advanced, or Pro), which determines how MANY lights you can control. You may want to upgrade this part of your license over time using this License Level Upgrade purchase.
