 How to install your TimbyrNode licence
===============================================================

Your licence is a small ".lic" file, for example
    Nordic Timber_50B6-5CFA-E5BD-4517_2027-06-30.lic
TimbyrNode reads it automatically at startup.


---------------------------------------------------------------
 STEP 1 - Put the licence next to the program
---------------------------------------------------------------

Copy the ".lic" file into the SAME folder as TimbyrNode.exe (the
same folder, not a subfolder). If it arrived in a .zip, extract
the ".lic" file first.

Extension check: the name must end in ".lic", not ".lic.txt".
Some email systems add ".txt", and Windows hides extensions by
default. To confirm: in the folder, open the View menu and turn
on "File name extensions".


---------------------------------------------------------------
 STEP 2 - Launch TimbyrNode
---------------------------------------------------------------

Start TimbyrNode normally; it finds the licence by itself.

  - The first launch on a new machine needs an internet connection
    for a one-time check. After that it runs offline.
  - If the licence expires within 14 days, a reminder shows the
    days left. It keeps working until the expiry date.


---------------------------------------------------------------
 Renewing later
---------------------------------------------------------------

  1. Copy the new ".lic" file into the same folder. You do NOT
     need to delete the old one; TimbyrNode uses whichever valid
     licence has the latest expiry date.
  2. Restart TimbyrNode.

Keep a backup copy of your ".lic" file somewhere safe.
