DESCRIPTION:
JeppView for Windows is installed and activated with a specific serial number and by automatically assigning a specific site key (activation code) to each installation. You can de-activate site keys in order to move an installation to a new computer (desktop or laptop) or in order to enter a different serial number by following the steps below. This process is often referred to as "deactivating site keys".
How-to modify/change serial number:
- Close the JeppView application
- In the File Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Jeppesen\JeppView for Windows\Update and run the Deactivate.exe file:
When prompted to send the deactivation code, choose Directly over the Internet (Automated).
Finish the Deactivation process.
3. Open the JeppView for Windows application. You will be prompted to activate the application with a new serial number.
4. When prompted to choose a site key method, choose From the the Internet (automated).
Once Finish is selected, JeppView for Windows will open. Make sure to check for updates to update the data to the latest cycle for the new coverage.
