Anti-piracy Knowledge
As we know no one can make some fake license key codes of ESET by key maker/Keygen. All fakes are those codes that have been sold to many buyers. So they are overused and locked by ESET at last. Few years ago, we have to activate the software by “Username&Password” / “License key”, those dishonest sellers will sell it again and again. Now ESET wants to solve this, so they provide the new option “Use license manager” as the picture below

Now it’s easy to fight pirated…
1. When you activate ESET software don’t need add your email and name. It must be fake.
2. When you add it to a license manager don’t need add your email and name. It must be fake.
3. If for 1 and 2, you can add your email and name. Must it be genuine? Yes, at least as of now it is genuine. But how to avoid it being sold to other buyers again and again by an dishonest seller?
In fact, simply speaking, there are two types of license key.
a: A type of license key can be use to activate ESET software by these two options “Enter a License Key” and “Use License Manager” as the IMAGE1.
b: A type of license key only can be used to activate ESET software by the option “Use License Manager” as the IMAGE1.
Notice: As we all know one license key only can be added just one license manger at the same time.
4. Now let us tell you the details about a & b
What a and b have in common is:
If you add it to your license manager account and make a verification of license ownership by email, then it will be protected. If your seller leak/sell it again to other buyers, you will know it and can reset your license key. More info about leaked license here https://help.eset.com/license_manager/en-US/?elm_leaked_license.html
The difference between a and b is:
a. If you (can) not make a verification of license ownership successfully for some reasons, you will know it if your license key be used on many devices, but you can not stop this. But you can ask your seller to give you an explanation.
b. If you (can) not make a verification of license ownership successfully, no one else can use it without your authorization unless they know your license manager account and password. This just is the license key we are selling.
NOTICE PLEASE: We only guarantee all license codes from us are NEW and Genuine can be added into license manager using your name and email, but we cannot guarantee that you can verify license ownership successfully for some reasons. Such as the issue of ESET’s website | the issue of your license manager account or the issue of your email. We recommend using an email address provided by a reliable email service provider[gmail,yahoo etc.]. This will increase the probability that you will receive the verification email. Aother we don’t recommend you add more than ten license codes into the same one license manager based on experience.
