Resolution

To receive a Neverfail license Key, follow the steps below:

1. Run Neverfail SCOPE to generate a CSV file of configuration data.
2. Log on to the Neverfail Extranet.
3. Select Licensing and then select then the relevant software license.
4. Click on CREATE NEW KEY and upload the CSV file(s) containing SCOPE data as prompted.
