You can actually go online to access the list of activated computers under your Agency License Key, here. All you need to do is copy and paste your License Key and click “OK” to pull up your list.
The activations are bound to each computer name, so you’ll need to match up computer names with your Users. If the computer naming convention does not make it clear which computer is registered to which User, here’s how you locate a computer name:
• Go to the Start Button
• Type in “System Information” in the Search field
• The computer name is listed as the “System Name” within this window
Once you’ve identified which computers you need released from the License Key, email helpdesk@simplyquiker.com with the computer names to be released.
