This section lists the answers to the most frequently asked questions (FAQs) about working with the {{ site.product }} license key.
102
-
103
-
### Do I need to generate a new license file if I have renewed my license?
104
-
Yes, but only If you upgrade the version of our product in your application with the new version.
105
-
106
-
### What happens if a developer leaves?
107
-
It does not affect your licensing key. The license key is generated against a specific range of versions. It will be valid as long as the license code is valid for the product version used (for example, the license file should be changed only when you upgrade the {{ site.product }}).
108
-
109
-
### Which versions of {{ site.product }} does this affect?
110
-
111
-
For CDN usage: Starting from R3 2022
112
-
113
-
For NPM: Starting from R2 2022

Add the `kendo-ui-license.js` file as a script reference right after the `kendo.aspnetmvc.min.js` reference or the Kendo scripts you are using. For example:
114
76
115
-
### Will projects stop working if we do not renew?
116
-
No, the licensing mechanism does not control the components behavior. Also, the licensing mechanism performs a check if the user (who authenticated in the docs to generate the license file) has a license for the version of our product used in the application. Note that our licenses are perpetual (see EULA).

+
* Adding the license file after a CDN reference to `kendo.all.min.js` and `kendo.aspnetmvc.min.js`
### Will the product function without a license key?
119
-
Yes, the product will continue to function normally without a license key. However, a warning message will appear in the browser console if a valid license key is not present.
83
+
<!-- Rest of the HTML -->
84
+
```
120
85
121
-
### Does the license key expire?
122
-
Yes, the license key expires at the end of your support subscription:
123
-
124
-
For trial users, this is at the end of your 30-day trial.
125
-
126
-
For licensed developers, this is when your subscription expires.
127
-
128
-
You will need to obtain and install a new license key after starting a trial, renewing a license, or upgrading a license.
129
-
130
-
> NOTE: An expired license key is valid for all Product versions published before its expiration date.
131
-
132
-
### I renewed my license key, but the warning message still appears in the console. What should I do?
133
-
Make sure that the [script license is present in your project](#step-2-add-the-license-file) and you [have correct references to it](#step-3-add-a-reference-to-the-license-file).
134
-
135
-
### Do I need an Internet connection to activate the license?
136
-
No, the license activation and validation are performed entirely offline.
137
-
138
-
No network requests are made at any point of the project lifecycle.
139
-
140
-
### My team has more than one licensed developer. Which key do we have to use?
141
-
To activate {{ site.product }}, you can use any of the keys associated with your subscriptions.
142
-
143
-
### Are earlier versions of {{ site.product }} affected?
144
-
No, if you use the CDN service and a version released prior to R3 2022, or NPM with a version released prior to R2 2022, you do not have to set up the licensing.
