An Overview of the Two-Level Activation Process for VTube Licenses

Overview of the Two-Level Activation Process for VTube Licenses


VTube uses a two-level license process that requires:

1) A USB "hardware key" plugged into the computer to run the program on that computer, and


2) an internet activation from a software key server that activates the license on a computer once and then checks into the server monthly.


Steps for the Two-Level License Activation

LICENSE STEP 1: ACTIVATE THE USB HARDWARE KEY

STEP 2: DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL THE MOST RECENT SOFTWARE BUILD

LICENSE STEP 3: ACTIVATE THE INTERNET LICENSE

How to Move an Internet License to Another Computer

To move a license to another workstation, see Deactivating Internet Licenses.


Typical Activation Problems

If you see a red bar with Activation Failed. Code 8, then Windows or a firewall is blocking access to the Internet License server.


In this case, you must use the Activate from Another Computer button.
