Upgrade from Evaluation
If you used an evaluation version of Nessus and are now upgrading to a full-licensed version of Tenable Nessus, type your full-version activation code on the Settings page, on the About tab.
Note: If you are using Tenable Nessus Scanner, the License Expiration and Activation Code values on the About page show as N/A.
To update the activation code:
