If you have a license file

To use the GUI Micro Focus License Administration

1. Start Micro Focus License Administration.
2. Click the Install tab.
3. Do one of the following:
   • Click Browse next to the License file field and select the license file (which has an extension of .mflic or .xml).
   • Drag and drop the license file from Windows Explorer to the License file field.
4. Click Install Licenses.

Alternatively, you can install the license file from within the IDE as follows:

1. Start Enterprise Developer.

   If you have not installed a license for Enterprise Developer, trying to use the Micro Focus functionality for the first time after you install the product results in a warning message. Visual Studio displays an information bar with a message that Enterprise Developer does not have a valid license. You can use the Install license link in the bar, or close the bar.

2. Click Help > Micro Focus Product Help > Product Licensing to open the Product Licensing dialog box.
3. Click Browse next to the License file field.
4. Select the license file (which has an extension of either .mflic or .xml), and then click Open.
5. Click Authorize to install the license.

   You should see a dialog box with a confirmation that the licenses have been installed successfully.
