CryptoPrevent White-Label Creator Load/Save Config Tab

Load/Save Config tab

• The top portion of the tool’s interface shows the total number of remaining licenses associated with the product key previously entered.
  • In the above example, 99 installations/licenses are available to assign to a particular configuration.
  • Once installations/licenses are assigned to a particular configuration, they are reduced from your overall remaining installations.
  • Installations/licenses may be retrieved from a configuration as long as they have not been deployed.
  • Placing a smaller number of installs than originally specified or a zero in the Define Number of Installs for Configuration field will increase your overall remaining installations.
  • The loss of a configuration with installations/licenses attached will result in the loss of those installations/licenses.
    • For this reason, we provide backup and restore buttons to safeguard your configurations.  Please do not hesitate to frequently utilize those buttons.
• The standard steps you would want to follow to create a configuration are the following:
  1. Assuming you have more than 0 “Overall Remaining Installations:” available.
  2. Enter a name for the configuration
     • this name is for your reference only
     • the client in most all circumstances will not see this configuration name
       • however it is stored in an ini file on their system so keep that in mind when naming configurations
  3. Enter a positive number in the “Define Number of Installs for Configuration” box
     • this is the number of installs the created installer will be able to be used on
     • this number can be increased/decreased in the future as long as
       1. additional “Overall Remaining Installations” are available to increase the configuration’s remaining installs
       2. there are “Installs Remaining on Configuration” to decrease, which will be added back to the “Overall Remaining Installs”
     • once the number of remaining installs on the configuration are at 0
       • the created installer will not longer install the premium version with your defined settings on new systems
       • This installer can still be used to reinstall on systems currently consuming a license under this White-Label key
     • a 0 (“zero”) can be entered here to disable the created installer from installing additional installs
       • This installer can still be used to reinstall on systems currently consuming a license under this White-Label key
     • if you enter the same number as the “Installs Remaining on Configuration”, no licenses changes will be made
       • this is useful if you want to change the configuration and resubmit for a new installer that has different settings
  4.  Save/Update Current Configuration
  5. Backup Configurations to Zip
     • save this backup in a secure location
     • it is password protected, you will be prompted to enter a password at time of backup creation
       • Foolish IT has no access to this password
       • if it is lost/forgotten, it is unlikely that it will be recoverable
     • you should only need to restore this backup if:
       • you uninstall the CryptoPrevent Creator-Configuration tool from the system
       • the system with your configurations suffers a failure and needs to be reloaded
• Adjusting the “Installs Remaining on Configuration” can be done by ensuring the appropriate configuration is loaded and then following steps 3-5 above
• You can load a saved configuration using the “Load a Previously Saved Configuration” button
  • this will allow you to adjust the remaining installs
    • this will automatically apply to the currently created installer
  • or change the settings on the configuration
    • this would require submitting the configuration again and having a new installer created
    • note this may incur a charge for additional installer creation
