March 30, 20179 yr Hey all I have so far trial version (and I love it) but would like to change the USB memory when my current is large o unwieldy. Is it possible o make it to trial? I tried according to the process here https://lime-technology.com/replace-key/ but could not find the button Replace Key. I have tried to find some tips on the forum but I am going nowhere. //Johan
March 30, 20179 yr You can't replace a trial key, but you can request a new one for the other device.
March 30, 20179 yr Author Ok but all my settings and so on is it ok if i copy the config directory to my new usb drive.
March 30, 20179 yr Author Ok, thanks but excuse my ignorance but how do you get a new key? Should I email someone or how?
March 30, 20179 yr Prepare the new key like you did your current one, copy the config folder from the old key, boot unRAID and you'll have the option to request a trial key.
March 30, 20179 yr Author Ok, but I do not have that option as I can see, or am I looking in the wrong place? Edited March 30, 20179 yr by Johan71
March 30, 20179 yr Author Ok tried and reinstall unraid on my USB memory but get the same thing without a key file.
March 30, 20179 yr Author Yes removed usb and reinstalled new unraid to usb then copied config folder without key file
March 30, 20179 yr Don't know why it's not working, maybe trial request only appears on a new install, redo the new flash, don't copy the config folder, boot and you should be able to get a trial key, only then copy the config folder and reboot.
March 31, 20179 yr Author Hello Did as you said and it worked so I can ask for a new key. But when I copied over config folder, I get a new problem see attached picture. I think soon gives up, it should be right as ** difficult to change the USB memory.
March 31, 20179 yr 2 hours ago, Johan71 said: it should be right as ** difficult to change the USB memory. It's very simple and painless to replace a registered key, like I said before you can't replace a trial key, IIRC you're the first to ask for that, and while I though it would work just coping the config folder to a new trial key it looks like LT made this not possible, and after thinking about it it makes sense, it's not uncommon for a any one person to have a half dozen flash drives, if you kept transferring the trial key you would be using unRAID for free for a year, so keep using the original trial flash drive and if you decide to buy a license do it with the new flash drive and you won't have any issues transferring the old config folder.

March 31, 20179 yr Author Ok, I understand the problem. I lay low until I buy a license, which I will do. Sorry if I sounded annoyed it isn sentence.
