RevokeLicense

Description

Revokes or un-revokes a license key.

When a subscription is renewed, each activated license is automatically reactivated on the server and a new computer bound key is generated with a new expiry date. When customers reactivate their license, they receive the new computer bound key with the new expiry date, thus extending their subscription period.

• Set the AdminEncryptionKey

                    bool revoke, out string response)
