iLok Question #2602406 01/09/17 09:10 AM

I plan on just using the sysetm's backup feature to make a "Image" and then restore it to the new drives.. will this have any impact of the licensing? Is it a transparent change or is there something I should do before hand? like release the licenses first and then reapply once the system is restored to the new drive? Please advise, if anyone has done this before. Thanks.

All the instruments are on the PC with the licenses through the iLok software, no dongle.

I had the hard drive's entire contents cloned onto the SSD, and everything transferred over fine - including any VSTs that required the iLok (NOT the dongle). I hope this helps. Bert
