License auditing

hey forum, I need to be able to match a license to the dev using it. I do have all the keys already, is there a way to see what license is being used on a computer?

Thanks!

Hi, thanks for posting.

For privacy and security reasons, this isn't something we track centrally. If you're using a license server on-site, the server should be able to show you who is holding which key. Failing this, unfortunately the only way is to physically access the machines and check the license keys manually.

I totally understand that you cannot track that. I do have physical access to all of the machines, do you know where the keys are recorded locally?

You'll need to start up Visual Studio on each machine, then open the NCrunch menu (usually under 'Extensions), then choose 'License Details'. I recommend copy/pasting the key if at all possible to avoid any issues with hand copying.
