HASP4 Driver Command-line Installer: Readme

The list below includes new HASP Device Driver features, improvements, issues addressed, and other relevant information.

Note:

Supported Platforms

The following Windows platforms are supported, including Vista:

Upgrade Note

When upgrading the driver, ensure that no running service is using the driver. Although the installation program terminates applications that are accessing the driver, it does not terminate running services. For example, if the HASP License Manager is running as a service, you must stop the service before upgrading the driver.

Installing HASP4 Drivers

To use HASP4 under Windows x64 and x86, you must first install the support drivers.

HINSTALL.EXE is a command-line utility that can be used to install and uninstall HASP4 drivers. The installation utility only updates the driver files if they contain an older driver version. To install HASP4 drivers using HINSTALL.EXE, haspds_windows.dll and hdinst_windows.dll must be available in the same directory as the installer. The driver files are included in the installation program itself, so it is not necessary to separately distribute the driver files.

Use the HINSTALL -i command to install the drivers. HINSTALL takes the driver files from the image and copies the files to the appropriate system directories before launching the HASP4 service. You can execute protected programs after the drivers are installed and running.

To remove the HASP4 service from your system, ensure that no application using the HASP4 driver is running, then remove the registry entries related to the HASP4 driver.
