Dongle emulator is a software copy of original hardware key that
allows working with software without key attached to computer
Using dongle emulator instead of hardware key give you many benefits:
- Dongle emulator cannot be lost, broken or stolen
- Dongle can be installed on a few computers so it
is not necessary to switch anything when you go
from one place to another
- Dongle emulator makes your software running faster
- Dongle emulator solves problem of printers those
don't work with dongles
- Dongle emulator doesn't depend on hardware you use
2. Setting up new installation
