Creating IFL boot disk with registered TBOSDT Pro for BootIt ?

When creating IFL boot USB disk, I place ifl.ini (with TeraByte Drive Image Backup and Restore Suite V4 licence details) and bootitbm.ini (with BootIt Collection V2 licence details) into ifl folder where Drive Imaage Suite V4 is installed, but after booting IFL, TBOSDT is only registered as Pro version and not Pro for BootIt version (everything else is registered/licenced).
Can I create IFL boot disk with TBOSDT already registered as Pro for BootIt version ?
At the moment, on starting TBOSDT, it displays:
Code: Select all
Upgrade to Professional fo BootIt (optional)
To upgade to the Professional fo BootIt vesion, ente the name and key as shown on your BootIt Collection 2 purchase receipt. Leave the fields
blank to continue with the rofessional vrsion.
Enter Name:
Enter Key:
You are using the Pressional version. In the futuve, use the
"REGISTER" command to upgade to the Professional for BootIt version.

You need to enter the name/key when running makedisk to create the IFL boot media. If you are ticking the boxes to include ifl.ini and bootitbm.ini then after booting, you can confirm the files exist via terminal.

I ticked both boxes for ifl.ini and bootitbm.ini when running makedisk, but I still get that message when starting TBOSDT. Partition Work app doesn't ask for licence details on launch, so it must pick it up fom bootitbm.ini. Why doesn't TBOSDT ?

try bootit.ini and type "ver" to ensure you are using the correct version.

ifl.ini, bootitbm.ini and bootit.ini are all there, and ver says Version 3.05 - Professional
Still has that previous message on first start of TBOSDT though.

type in the name/key when it asks then look at the file created to see if it has the same name/key you had in it.

Just to be clear what is in each file (with name and key removed), and all three ini files ae placed in the ifl folder at when makedisk.ee is run from to create the IFL ISO/boot disk...
Code: Select all
C:\Program Files (x86)\TeraByte Drive Image Backup and Restore Suite\IFL
bootitbm.ini and bootit.ini both have following...
Code: Select all
[License]
User=<name>
ProductKey=<Key for BootIt Collection V2>
ifl.ini has following...
Code: Select all
[License]
User=<name>
ProductKey=<Key for TeraByte Drive Image Backup and Restore Suite V4.08>
