Where does FileBot import the license file?

Is there a way to put the license file into a folder and have FileBot automatically import it on first run, without executing first filebot --license <file>.psm?

Yes, filebot --license <file>.psm just runs a license check and then copies the license into the application data folder. I think it's $APP_DATA/.license by default.


You can also override the default path with your own via the net.filebot.license system property:

Code: Select all

-Dnet.filebot.license="/path/to/license.psm"
