How to deactivate V3 plugin license?

Just going to reload windows as my PC is going haywire.....

When trying to deactivate the octane plugin v3 in Lightwave through the OctaneLive tab in the plugin options....the "deactivate offline license" button is greyed out.

Is there any other way to deactivate?

Thanks

If you still have access to your machine you may deactivate it using the "Licenses Management" option from the plugin:

https://docs.otoy.com/#60License%20Information

Note that for this you will need a valid Internet connection.

Otherwise you may use the emergency "Unlock" mechanism which releases your license remotely:

I hope this helps.

this is the extent of my license management tab

I may be confused, as I am used to v2 licensing.....does V3 automatically unlock the license when closing the program?
The option here appears to be only for "offline" licenses

Yes, V3 licenses are deactivated automatically when you close the host application so there's no need to deactivate explicitly as it was before ;)
