This page is related to key-based licenses — a regular license type used in TestExecute 15.40. For information on the new ID-based license type, see SmartBear ID-based Licenses.

You get this message if you are trying to activate a TestExecute license on your computer when there is another license already activated on this computer.

TestExecute displays this message to inform you that the new license cannot be activated over the existing one. Before activating the new license, you need to deactivate the existing one first. You can do this either automatically, by uninstalling TestExecute or manually, via your SmartBear Account page (https://my.smartbear.com). For detailed instructions on deactivation steps, see Deactivating and Moving Licenses.

You can also try resolving the problem by using the Licensing Troubleshooter on our web site:
