ForScore can now support a hardware license on a 'dongle'.
A dongle looks a bit like a USB thumb drive, but is specialized for program protection and cannot be used for general data storage..
With a dongle, a club can share scoring duties amongst a number of computers just by passing the dongle to the next guy.
A dongle can be supplied with a permanent license, or with a temporary license for a specific event.
Using the dongle requires
1. Installing the drivers for the dongle
2. Inserting the dongle in an available USB port
3. Starting ForScore using the /dongle switch
NOTE: Dongle licenses are only supported on ForScore versions 1.34 and above!
WARNING: If you lose a dongle, the replacement cost will be that of your original license plus the hardware cost of the dongle.
If a dongle becomes defective and you return it postpaid to Beach Bunny Software, it will be replaced at no charge.
NOTE: You can find a more detailed set of dongle instructions (dongle.pdf) in the folder in which ForScore is installed.
