Deactivating Templater

You can activate Templater on a single machine for each license you own. If you need to move Templater to a different machine, follow these steps to deactivate. Then see Registering and Activating Templater to activate on the new machine.

WARNING   Deactivating through the Templater Preferences panel does not cancel any recurring subscription payments to Dataclay, LLC, its partners, or resellers. You must work directly with your vendor to cancel any recurring charges to your account. For example, to fully cancel a subscription purchased from Dataclay, you must login under your account and remove your payment method under the "Payment Method" tab. If you purchased from aescripts + aeplugins you must login under your account.
