Handy Backup 6.1

Can I use a single license on more than one computer?



  • A single license can't be used on more than one computer simultaneously. However, Handy Backup can easily back up LAN drives, so it can be efffectively used to back up shared network data. If your company's security policies don't allow file sharing, you may be interested in our enterprise backup solution Handy Backup Server.

  • To move Handy Backup from one computer to another, please send us an email registration request from the machine on which you want to use Handy Backup (refer to Registration in Handy Backup Help for details).

  • If you need more than one registered copies of Handy Backup, then you will need to purchase the corresponding amount of licenses.
