Install and activate IObit Pro software

Your IObit order contains a licence key, not an installer. This guide takes you from the email in your inbox to a working Advanced SystemCare Pro or Driver Booster Pro on Windows. It covers both programs, because IObit registers them in almost the same way.

What you received

Open your order confirmation email. It contains your licence code. The same code is in your Lizensa account under My Library.

• The product name tells you how long the licence lasts. A name without a term, such as Advanced SystemCare or Driver Booster Pro, is a perpetual licence. A name that ends in 12 months, 24 months or 36 months is a subscription for exactly that period.
• There is nothing to download from Lizensa. The program comes from IObit. Your key turns the free edition into the Pro edition.
• Keep the email. You need the code again if you reinstall Windows or move to another PC.

Subscription products: Advanced SystemCare 12 months, 24 months, 36 months, Driver Booster Pro 12 months.

Before you start

• IObit lists Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, 7, Vista and XP for Advanced SystemCare, with 300 MB of free disk space and a screen of at least 1024 x 768.
• If Windows asks for administrator permission during the installation, approve the request or ask your administrator.
• Follow the registration prompts in the program.

Get the software

Download the installer from IObit's own website, never from a third-party download portal.

1. Open IObit's page for Advanced SystemCare or Driver Booster.
2. Select the free download and save the installer.
3. Save the file in a folder you can find again, for example Downloads.

You install the free edition first. IObit's own guide then describes registering the code as the step that turns it into the Pro edition.

Lizensa supplies the licence code, not the software. Your order email and My Library contain the code. Download the program from IObit's website only.

Install

1. Double-click the setup file you saved.
2. If Windows asks whether the app may make changes to your device, select Yes or ask your administrator.
3. Follow the installer prompts. If a licence agreement appears, continue only if you accept it.
4. Wait until the installation finishes.
5. Start the program. It opens in the free edition and shows an Enter code link at the bottom left of the main window (Advanced SystemCare) or a similar link in Driver Booster.

Activate

Advanced SystemCare

1. Open Advanced SystemCare. In the free edition, select the Enter code link at the bottom left of the main screen.
2. The registration window opens. Copy your licence code from the email and paste it into the License Code box. Pasting avoids typing mistakes.
3. Select Register Now.
4. Open Options > My Subscription to review your licence.

IObit describes these steps in its own guide: How to register Advanced SystemCare.

Driver Booster

1. Open Driver Booster. In the free edition, select the Enter Code link at the bottom left of the main screen.
2. Paste your licence code into the box and select Activate.
3. Select OK.

IObit's guide: How to register Driver Booster. IObit's German help pages also show these English button names.

Adding a new code to a Pro edition

If you have a new code for an existing Pro installation, follow these steps:

1. In Advanced SystemCare Pro, select the Options icon at the top right, then My Subscription, then the Refresh link, paste the new code and select Register Now.
2. In Driver Booster Pro, select Manage License to open the License Manager, then Refresh, paste the code, select Activate and select OK.

Check it worked

1. Open the program after the registration.
2. In Advanced SystemCare, select Options > My Subscription to review your licence.
3. In Driver Booster, select Manage License to review your licence.

A subscription runs for the term in its product name. If the licence information does not match your order, contact our support with your order number.

If something goes wrong

The program says the code is not valid. Paste the code again from the email instead of typing it, and check that no space was copied with it. Enter the code in the program you ordered it for.

The code was entered, but the program still shows the free edition. Look at My Subscription or Manage License. If the status has not changed, contact our support with your order number.

You lost the email with the code. Your code is also in My Library. IObit offers a Resend Code page as well. Use the same email address you gave when you ordered.

You reinstalled Windows or replaced the PC. Install the program again from IObit's site and enter the same code. If the old PC is still in use, follow the instructions on IObit's transfer page to move the Pro licence to another PC. IObit asks for the email address you gave when you ordered.

The Pro features stopped after some time. Subscription products run for the term in their name. Open My Subscription or Manage License and review the licence. If it does not match your order, contact our support with your order number.

Still stuck? Contact our support. Include your order number, the program and its version, and the exact message you see.
