QLM Pro QLM All QLM v20 Official Release Notes
QLM Pro QLM Pro The QLM License Server and all related server components have been upgraded from .NET Framework 4.6 to .NET 10. This is a significant architectural change that affects the License Server URLs used in your application to communicate with the License Server. Instructions are provided below to configure a URL redirect to ensure your existing customers are unaffected. Side-by-side hosting of the old and new License Server versions is also supported and recommended to allow a smooth transition. Please refer to the official release notes for detailed instructions on how to perform the upgrade and configure the URL redirect. Note that moving forward, any new features will only be available in the new License Server version, so we recommend upgrading your application to use the new URL as soon as possible to take advantage of the latest improvements and fixes.
QLM Ent QLM Pro All integrations (ecommerce, etc) must be updated to use the new License Server URL.
QLM Ent QLM Pro The QLM Agent Windows Service now uses .NET 10. After installing QLM v20, you will need to reconfigure the credentials of the user account running the QLM Agent Windows Service.
QLM Pro QLM Pro The procedure to integrate QLM with Azure has changed. Please refer to the latest documentation before upgrading.
QLM Ent QLM Portal The QLM Portal has been completely rewritten using Blazor and .NET 10, delivering improved performance, maintainability, and user experience.
QLM Pro QLM All The QLM Management Console and the QLM Portal now reference DevExpress 25.2.5.

QLM Pro QLM All The qlmredirect.xml used in the QLM Disaster Recovery framework must be updated with new entries for the QLM v20 License Server. See the Official Release Notes for details.
QLM Pro QLM All Since its inception, and as outlined in our EULA, QLM has been licensed on a per‑user / per‑computer basis. While this policy was not strictly enforced in the past and relied largely on the honor system, it remains a fundamental part of our licensing terms. Unfortunately, due either to misunderstandings of the EULA or intentional misuse, some customers have deployed QLM in shared environments (such as servers or virtual machines) that allow multiple users to access a single licensed instance. This usage is not compliant with the EULA. Effective with this release, we have introduced technical measures to enforce QLM’s per‑user / per‑computer licensing policy. Important: if you are using the QLM Agent Windows Service, you must configure the service to run using the same account as the user account used to run the QLM Management Console.
QLM Pro QLM All Miscellaneous bug fixes.

Breaking Change 18.0.24304.3 The function QlmLicense.ActivateLicenseDialog was moved from QlmLicenseLib.dll (.NET 4) to QlmControls.dll because it forced QlmLicenseLib.dll to depend on System.Windows.Forms. If you are using this function, you will now need to reference QlmControls.dll in addition to QlmLicenseLib.dll.

QLM All QLM All QLM v17 Official Release. Read the Release Notes.
Important Change In an effort to tighten security, generic license keys are no longer supported by default. Generic license keys are licenses that do not require activation and are not bound to a computer identifier. For example, if you embed a trial license in your source code, you are using a generic license key. After upgrading to this version, validation of a generic license key will fail unless you reenable it. To enable generic license keys on the client side, you must set the QlmLicense.AllowGenericKeys to true. To enable generic license keys on the server side, you must set the "security/AllowGenericKeys" server property to true.
Important Change When programmatically creating a QlmLicense object, the QLM Engine Version is now set to 6.0.00 by default. To force the QLM Engine Version to 5.0.00, you must explicitly set the QlmLicense.Version property to 5.0.00. This is required before calling any QLM API that creates license keys or modifies license keys such as subscription renewals, license upgrades, license updates, and license activation. If you are using the LicenseValidator class, you can either regenerate the LicenseValidator class or simply set the QlmLicense.Version property in the LicenseValidator constructor. For more information, read about the new QLM License Models.
Important Change When creating licenses from the QLM Management Console or the QLM Portal, you need to ensure that the Engine Version is set according to your requirements. If you are an existing customer and you upgrade to QLM v17 on your current computer, the default settings for the Engine Version will be 5.0.00. However, if you are an existing customer and you install QLM on a new computer, the default settings for the Engine Version will be 6.0.00. Follow the instructions here to configure your system to create license keys using Engine Version 5.0.00 by default.
Important Change The QlmLicenseLibNetCore.dll and QlmLicenseLibNetStd.dll have been renamed to QlmLicenseLib.dll. This applies to the files distributed within the QLM installation as well as the QlmLicenseLib nuget package.
Important Change The QLM License Server Gateway is now decommissioned.
Important Code Change Update to the LicenseValidator class to support the new QLM License Models. If you use the new License Models introduced with QLM v17, you will need to regenerate the LicenseValidator class.
QLM Pro QLM Portal Fixed an issue for Delphi Pascal and C++ Builder apps. The QlmLicense.Version (set) property was replaced with QlmLicense.SetVersion() method because the Embarcadero tlibimp.exe tool was erroneously generating a read-only property.

Breaking Change About a year ago, we discontinued the QLM Document Protection product which has the ability to wrap an executable. The reason for this decision was that the technology used to wrap an EXE is identical to the technology used by viruses to infect a system. As such, QLM was being flagged by AntiVirus software as a potential threat. The feature to wrap an EXE was however still available in QLM Enterprise. Effective immedialely, the ability to wrap an executable has been completely removed from QLM. Moving forward, we highly recommend that you integrate licensing at the code level rather than wrap the executable.
