WIBU-SYSTEMS has already published CodeMeter Runtime updates on their homepage. Since the updated versions of Codemeter Runtime have not yet been incorporated into Phoenix Contact software tools, we strongly recommend to download and install the updated CodeMeter Runtime version e.g. for Windows directly from the WIBU-SYSTEMS homepage.\n\nIf you enabled the network server functionality on a Windows, Linux or Mac-system at some point but no longer need it, disable it.\n\nIf you are using CodeMeter Runtime 9.00 or newer, you can use cmu --disable-network-server.\n\nIf you are using older versions of CodeMeter Runtime, do the following:\n\nOn Windows:\n+\tOpen the Registry Editor. \n+\tNavigate to \"computer\\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\WIBU-SYSTEMS\\CodeMeter\\Server\\CurrentVersion\\\".\n+\tThen change the value of NetworkServer from 1 to 0. \n+\tRestart CodeMeter.\n\nOn Linux and Mac:\n+\tStop CodeMeter.\n+\tEdit the file under \"/etc/wibu/CodeMeter/Server.ini\":\nUnder [General], change the value IsNetworkServer from 1 to 0. \n•\tThen start CodeMeter again.\n",
