Authorization Process

At this point you have successfully registered SpotCheck and the payment transaction has been processed. You now receive a unique serial number via e-mail or postal mail which ever you have chosen. This serial number will allow you to complete the authorization process. This process ends the demo period and binds the application to the machine.

In order to authorize Spotcheck, please follow these steps.

  • Launch your trial version of SpotCheck. If your SpotCheck is still in a demo mode, you are presented the following warning alert dialog box on start up.

  • Click the "Authorize" button from the demo warning alert. If you don’t see the warning alert at launch then you can expire the demo by turning the date forward, launching the application, then turning the date back. Alternatively, you can hold down the control and space keys at launch to force the authorization dialog to appear.
  • Next, you are presented the Serial # Dialog.

Notice the serial number is a group of fairly simple English words ( ie. MARS SNOW FITS HOGS ) rather than a complex series of unrelated number and letters. This helps facilitate easy and correct entry on the first attempt. Enter the serial number or paste it from your e-mail, then click the OK button. At this point your application is bound to your system and authorized to run.

This process will create a number of authorization files and folders on your hard drive. These files are needed for SpotCheck to continue to run as a fully functional application. These files do not interfere with any other applications or system functions.
