Licensing Changes If you are upgrading the GO-Global host software and your maintenance contract has expired, you will be notified and directed to a page where you can request assistance in renewing your maintenance contract. Since the upgraded installation will not function without a valid license, GraphOn recommends canceling the upgrade until you have renewed your maintenance contract.

To upgrade multiple licenses, run the License Upgrade Wizard via the Start Menu for each license.
