What is a USB-eLicenser?
The Syncrosoft USB-eLicenser is an anti-piracy device that protects software applications and digital content. The tamper-proof memory of the USB-eLicenser serves as a secure “wallet” for licenses and protects them against viruses and manipulation. Each USB-eLicenser has a unique serial number.

How can I see the licenses stored inside?
The License Control Center tool allows you to view, manage, move and update your product licenses that are stored in Soft- and USB-eLicensers. After the Syncrosoft License Control Center has been installed you can find the application in the "Applications" folder on the system hard disk.

Where do I get the latest version of the License Control Center?
The License Control Center tool comes as part of the License Control software package, which includes the Syncrosoft DRM modules and USB-eLicenser drivers. The latest version is available at: www.syncrosoft.com/License_Control_Center-78-11.html

I get the error message "Calling init method failed" when I try to start a program. **NEW**.
