How do I receive my license file?
⭑⭑ Video Tutorial: How do I install my FileBot License File? ⭑⭑
After purchasing FileBot via Paddle, you will receive
2 emails. The first email from
[email protected] will contain your license as plain text. The second email from
[email protected] will contain your license as file attachment. Either one can be used to activate FileBot.

If you did not receive
2 emails, please
check your Spam / Junk Email folder. If you're using a Desktop application
(e.g. Windows Mail) to receive Email via POP3 or IMAP, please check the Spam / Junk Email folder via the web interface as well.

If you have received
no email at all then you have likely
mistyped your email address or your
mail server is rejecting emails. In this case, please
contact Paddle (our payment processor) with your
payment details so they can help you look up your
order number and resend your license.

If you want to
recover a lost license key or a
never received license key, please
contact Paddle (our payment processor) with your
name,
email and
payment details so they can look up your order and resend your license confirmation. If you have multiple purchases under your
email address, then you must include
payment details so that they can look up your most recent order.
