For Imatest 3.7+, follow the instructions on Activate online or Activate offline.

After you’ve installed and purchased Imatest or Imatest Renewal (Studio or versions 3.6 or earlier) you’ll need to register it by clicking on the Register button in the Imatest main window or by clicking on Help, Register or License manager (activate).

If you have a personal firewall, we recommend disabling it before you register. You may re-enable it as soon as registration is complete. If you can’t register online following the instructions below, try Offline registration. You must have administrator privileges on your computer. This is rarely an issue, except on networked systems with strong security.

Fill in the the Register Imatest window: Enter your name, company (if applicable), e-mail, and the password you entered when you signed up on Imatest.com, then click on Register. If you forgot your password, click on Recover password. This opens a web page that enables you to recover your lost password via e-mail.
