    Hello.
    I restore a raspbain SD image for all my new devices.
    This image contains an old license of the original device.
    What must be done to clean the old licenses before install the new one ?

    Thank you.

    Hi,
    you need to:
    1. delete the cmact_licesen directory ( or it's content)
    2. then restart the plc
    3. - > apply the new license.

      That might not be enough
      using CODESYS V3.5 SP20 and
      CODESYS Control for Raspberry Pi MC SL
      version: 4.11
      I deleted .cmact_license directory.
      I installed new license and the dialog box said it was done successfully, but in reality it was not.
      What more should be deleted
