Before performing these steps the target K2BTools version must be installed. In the examples below, the target version is 13.0.
The purpose of requesting temporary licenses is to ensure access to K2BTools during the period between uninstalling the old licenses and receiving the new ones. This step can be skipped.
Open GeneXus, go to K2BTools’ menu and execute the “Authorize K2BTools” action.

In this step, licenses for 60 days will be requested.

| K2BTools license manager |
To do this, select the target version in the License Manager dialog, and click on the "Authorize" option. Then, select the "Authorize Online" option and enter the amount of days for the license (60 days).
Note:We recommend to use the "Authorize Online" option, however this request can be done via the "Generate Authorization File" option. In this case the amount of days should be specified in the rquest email.
When licenses arrive install them in your computer. From this moment on, the new K2BTools version may be used.
If using the K2BTools (local) License Manager: Open the legacy license manager located in Packages\K2BTools in the file OldLicenses.zip
