I'd like to automate installation of my license *after* the installation of the product; is there any way to do that? Like, is the license stored in a registry key or a file somewhere that I could write to?
Thanks in advance!

Re: License location?
Hi rlpowell,
Thanks for the post - There are quite a number of ways that this can be done. Are you using some kind of deployment system (e.g. SCCM, Group Policy, etc.)?

Re: License location?
Chocolatey installation using Puppet, but I've managed to modify the Chocolatey package installer to take the /KEYFILE argument, so I think I'm OK. I'm still curious as to where this stuff is stored in the end, though.

Re: License location?
Hello rlpowell,
License keys are encrypted upon installation to the user or machine, depending on the installation method. The keys should be available from here:
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tracker Software\Vault
~or~
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Tracker Software\Vault
They can be installed unencrypted by using the /OPENKEYS argument during installation.
I believe this article may also help you out:
