3.0.22 - Flavor: Manual Install ———- Windows 11

Hi all,

I have a PTB license for multiple devices, one of which is an air-gapped lab PC. The PC has to stay offline for data security reasons. Is there anyway to activate my license on that PC without connecting to the internet?

Thank you and best regards,

Hakam

We have a FAQ entry about the current state of this: FAQ · Psychtoolbox-3/Psychtoolbox-3 Wiki · GitHub

But in short, if I know your license key (PM it to me, don’t post it publically!), I can reconfigure that license to allow offline activation and use. `help PsychLicenseHandling` → OFFLINE USE IN AIR GAPPED ENVIRONMENTS explains how you then can offline activate a machine with the help of another machine that is online and I guess a USB stick to pass some activation file forth and back.

Hi Mario, thank you very much for your help. That’s definitely on me for not searching that FAQ.
I’ll PM you my key.
