First, get the SAS 2022 license file archive.

If you were sent the license file directly via email, in the email message, find the attached file SAS2022-SingleUserLicenses.zip.

If you were not sent the license file directly, download the file from your Software Licensing order page:

1. Log in to the Software Licensing Ordering System
2. After login, click My Account, then Customer Orders, and find your 2022 SAS order.
3. Click the Details button for the order, then the Download License link on that page.
4. Find the SAS2022-SingleUserLicenses.zip file in your Downloads folder.
5. Right-click the file and select Extract All from the menu. This should create a folder called SAS 2022 Single User Licenses. Remember the location of this folder.

Next, run the Renew SAS Software application as Administrator.

1. From the Start Menu, select All Programs --> SAS --> Utilities.
2. Right-click Renew SAS Software.
3. Select Run As Administrator.
4. The utility should prompt you to browse to the location of your SAS license file. Locate your SAS 2022 Single User Licenses folder. Navigate inside that folder to the subfolder SAS 9.4, then to the license file:
   • 64-bit: SAS94_9CQ1HY_70084771_Win_X64_Wrkstn.txt
   • 32-bit: SAS94_9CQ1HY_70003141_Win_Wrkstn.txt
5. Click NEXT.
6. The utility will now ask you to specify product location of the SAS program on your computer. Unless you have chosen to install the program in a different location, SAS should be at the following location: C:\Program Files\SASHome\SASFoundation\9.4
7. When you have specified the location, click RENEW.

If the renewal was successful, you should see the message, "The setinit was successfully applied."
