How to Register

Step 1 - Try It

You can use the program free for 30 days to see if it suits your needs.  If you use it beyond 30 days you are obliged to pay the license fee.  Please read the License Agreement for details.  If you do not register the program, it will stop functioning after 30 days of use (rather than 30 days from installation).

Step 2 - Buy It

The single user license fee for the Standard Edition is US$30, and US$50 for the Pro Edition.  We have discounted pricing for multi-user site licenses.  For complete instructions and links for on-line ordering, please visit our web site at:  www.scootersoftware.com

Step 3 - Unlock It

Once we receive your order, we email you back with your registration key that unlocks the program.  When you receive your registration key, copy it from the email message to the clipboard.  Then start up your copy of Beyond Compare and choose Enter Key from the popup window that first appears, or, select Enter Key from the Help menu.

The registration key disables the "nag" screen and removes the 30 day limitation.  Your registration key will work with all language versions of Beyond Compare, as well as all subsequent minor version updates.
