How do I activate Korva Pro with my licence key?
Click the Free button in Korva's title bar, then I have a licence key. Paste the key from your receipt email into Licence key and click Activate Pro. You need an internet connection once, to activate; after that Korva Pro works offline.

Korva checks the key with the licence server. When it works, it says Korva Pro is activated. Click Start using Pro. The button in the title bar now says Pro.

From here you can also move the licence to another computer. See Move your licence.
If it still doesn’t work
“That licence key could not be found”
The key is mistyped or incomplete. Copy it again from the email instead of typing it, and make sure you got the whole key. Check that it’s the key from your Korva receipt and not an order number.
“This licence is already in use on another computer”
A licence works on one computer at a time. Deactivate it on the other computer first, or if that computer is gone, free it online. See Move your licence.
“Could not reach the licence server”
Activation needs the internet once. Check your connection, and if you’re on a work or school network, try another network. After activation you can work offline; see Using Korva Pro offline.
