Share QlikView document, created with leased license personal edition

Hello,

I am using QV v11.20 Personal Edition and I have leased a licesnse from the server. Is it possible to share the documents that I am creating, with users having an unlicensed personal edition of Qlikview?

thank you!

First a clarification. "Personal Edition" is actually a license, not a software version. Everyone running Qlikview Desktop is using the same software edition, but perhaps different licenses and therefore different privileges with regards to sharing.

A qvw file created by a licensed user may not be opened by a Personal Edition user. PE users may only (theoretically) open qvws created by themselves. There are some workarounds to this limitation, such as using one of the recoveries or clearing the registry. But those workarounds typically are contrary to the license terms and usually have undesirable side effects -- such as making the user's own documents inoperable.

Hi,

You can share your document but issue at time of opening document on another person.(Qlikview Personal Edition may be recover only 3 document otherwise gives error as failed to open)

Hi,

If you need to use licensed version application more than 3 times, clear the registry.
