    Hello Clara,

    Yes, the License key (begins from 4 letters and 20 numbers after) is the same as the Serial number. Please use it for activation.

    Good morning. My name is Marcus. I have the license number of 4 letters and 20 numbers for "ABBYY FINE READER 10", however, I am not able to activate the product over the internet. Upon activation, informs the possibility of registering more than one product. However, I'm not trying to activate more than one product, I'm just wanting to activate the product on this computer.
