Question:How to activate Curtain e-locker?
 
Answer:When product activation is needed, Curtain e-locker will prompt users every time when Curtain Client or Curtain Admin is launched. Please follow steps below to activate the software.

Steps to activate Curtain e-locker:
1. In Curtain Policy Server, launch Curtain Admin. Then, you will be asked to do the activation.



2. Click Yes to start Product Activation (or click No to skip the Activation).
  • If it is the first time you activate the software, you will be asked to enter a 25-character Product Key.
  • If it is the Annual Product Reactivation, please go to Step 4 to continue.



3. Enter Product Key (which is case sensitive) and company information, and click OK to continue. Then, the following dialog will appear.




4. Click "Generate Request file..." button to generate Activation Request File, and send this file to Coworkshop (registration@coworkshop.com). After receiving your activation request, Coworkshop will send file(s) back to you.
  • If it is the first time Product Activation, you will receive two files from Coworkshop (i.e. Confirmation Code and Authorization String).
