Speed up licence search

When using Flood Modeller there are various times when the software will search for an appropriate licence. You can configure the software to optimise this, for example to speed up the search for your licence.

To speed up your licence searching:

1. Completely close Flood Modeller
2. Locate your formsed.ini file. By default, this is located here:
   C:\Users\<your_username>\AppData\Roaming\Flood Modeller
3. Open the formsed.ini file within a text editor
4. Navigate to the [Preferences] section
5. Add/adjust the lines within this section in accordance with how you access your licence; these lines can be added anywhere within the [Preferences] block
6. Save and close the formsed.ini file
