Deep Fritz 12 Activation

Fritz 12 is activated using a serial number. After entering it you have to register the program on the Internet. In the application menu there is an option called "Activation". If you are using Windows XP please read the next chapter in this text.

After selecting this function "Activate" you get the following dialog:

If a serial number is not already present in the text boxes type the number that is printed on the cover of the user manual. Make sure that both "Application" and "Engine" are checked.

The serial number can be used to install the program on a maximum of three computers. If you want to install the program on a new computer, or you want to re-install your operating system, you should first deactivate the current registration online.

The reason for this is the hardware recognition. During the registration the program sends information about the user's system configuration to the server. The deactivation is carried out by the option "Deactivate". This increases the number of remaining installations by one, and the program can be re-installed on a different system configuration.

If you want to carry on using the program after changing the system configuration you also have to deactivate and re-activate the program.
