When you upgrade from the Community Edition to the Enterprise Edition of Right Click Tools, you don’t need to reinstall the application to apply your enterprise license. We do recommend connecting Right Click Tools to Recast Management Server, the centralized web interface for Recast Enterprise products, to take advantage of its features. To access all the functionality of the Standalone Edition of Right Click Tools Enterprise, there's no need to install additional Recast components, but you will have to download your Enterprise license.
Upgrade to Right Click Tools Enterprise with Recast Management Server
If you are upgrading from the Community Edition to the Enterprise Edition with Recast Management Server, you'll need to install Recast Management Server with Recast Proxy. Then you can add the URL for the Recast Management Server in the Configure Recast Console Extension application, verify the connection to RMS, and upload your Right Click Tools license to the Licenses page in the RMS interface.
