How do I modify (upgrade) a license?
Each software package comes with its own license.
When several editions are offered for an application, this indicates that the application can be used with more or less functionality. That’s why you need to activate your license to benefit from the features available under the chosen license.
Upgrade your current license.
As long as your license is valid, you can modify your license and acquire the right to use an edition with more functionality (upsizing) by paying only the difference in cost between the two editions.
- The difference in cost is calculated on the basis of the current price for the desired edition, minus the cost previously paid.
- If the license has a limited duration, the cost difference is calculated pro rata temporis for the time remaining on the license.
It is not possible to choose an edition with fewer features (downsizing). Similarly, it is not possible to modify an expired license.
Modify current license
Modifications can be made on the site using the “Purchase History” view or the “License” view in “My Account”.

Taking into account the new license
The new license level is applied as soon as the payment has been validated. The modification is taken into account when the application is launched, without any action on your part.
If the application is launched while your license is being modified, remember to exit and relaunch the application.
