# Licensing fallback mechanism (Windows)

This topic describes what license is consumed when the license edition configured on the OpenText Functional Testing for Developers machine is not available.

Note: The licensing fallback is relevant only when working with concurrent licenses on Windows, and is not enabled by default.

When starting OpenText Functional Testing for Developers, the AutoPass License Server attempts to consume the exact license edition configured on the OpenText Functional Testing for Developers machine, such as the UFT One or UFT Developer license.

To modify this configuration on your Windows machine, see Define license consumption behavior. Do this if you are concerned about the availability of the license edition configured on your machine.

OpenText Functional Testing for Developers consumes licenses in the following order, starting from the license edition configured on the machine:

Example:

Scenario 1: UFT Developer license configured on your machine

If the UFT Developer license is configured on your machine, but there is no available UFT Developer license on the License Server, OpenText Functional Testing for Developers tries to consume a UFT One license.

In turn, if no UFT One license is available, OpenText Functional Testing for Developers tries to consume a UFT Ultimate license.

Scenario 2: UFT Runtime Engine license installed on your machine

If the UFT Runtime Engine license is configured on your machine but there is no available UFT Runtime Engine license, OpenText Functional Testing for Developers tries to consume a UFT Developer license.

In turn, if there is no available UFT Developer license, OpenText Functional Testing for Developers tries to consume a UFT One license, and so on.
