Additional Information

In some cases, an earlier License Manager version might be compatible with a newer client software. The dependency is due to the underlying third party code we use in the License Manager. As such, and as this is third party code, there is no guarantee that an earlier License Manager will work entirely, or for all operations. Thus we have the stated requirement that a user must maintain a License Manager of the same or newer version than the client software being used.
