Error: "File is not a valid license generator" (4238300)

Trying to apply a license key and the following error is shown:

"File is not a valid license generator"

Open the license key in notepad and check what version is shown for the "GeneratorVersion". If it is set to 3 and you are using Secure Copy 7.2 or earlier, the license key is not valid for your version of Secure Copy. There are two workarounds:

1. Upgrade to 7.3 or later
2. Contact licensing and request a new license key: https://support.quest.com/contact-us/licensing, When filling out the form, in the License Request Details, please type the following:
   Please provide a license key using the version 2 license generator

Once you have the new key, if it applies with no errors, but the license details do not get updated with the new details of the key, please try the following:

1. Close the SC console
2. Navigate to the Secure Copy installation path (<installDrive\Program Files\Dell\Secure Copy 7)
3. Rename the ProductLicenses.dlv file to ProductLicenses.dlv.OLD
4. Open the SC console and apply the new license again
