# Updating your PCC Manually

How to manually update your ENERCALC SEL Product Control Code after a company name change or correction.

## How can I manually update my PCC?

There are some rare times where you might need to updated your PCC manually, such as if your company name changed.

To do this, launch ENERCALC SEL, but close out of any project, so that the Project Assistant is visible. Click the License icon in the toolbar and then click Deactivate this Device:

Click the Back to PCC button:

Your new PCC is typically delivered to your email address on file when you request a change such as a correction or a company name change.

Once you have your new PCC, you can click Clear PCC, and then copy the new one and paste it into the field labeled ENTER PRODUCT CONTROL CODE - "PCC":

Click the button labeled "VALIDATE Product Control Code":

If the PCC is valid, you will see an "ACTIVATE" button next. Click "ACTIVATE":

The next screen should indicate that the program is ready to activate your license, and it presents the option for Indefinite Activation or Automatic Activation and Deactivation. For more information on those two options: [Activation Options](/docs/sel-faq/setup-and-licensing/activation-and-licensing/how-it-works/the-spectrum-of-activation-opt.md)

Once you click on the button for the desired activation type, you will see an "Activation in Process" message:

![](https://1076748670-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FtBL2fEQRwrlKSM2irFL0%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-addf7e9ef662afae4e33a55fb3f06b16d2ffa131%2FActivation%20in%20Process.jpg?alt=media)

Under normal conditions, this will lead to the "Software is ACTIVATED" message:

![](https://1076748670-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FtBL2fEQRwrlKSM2irFL0%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-16877a3c9c7f299188678433cf72422a2c105921%2FSoftware%20is%20ACTIVATED.jpg?alt=media)

Simply click the "CONTINUE TO APP" button to begin using the software:

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://enercalc.com/docs/sel-faq/setup-and-licensing/activation-and-licensing/updating-your-pcc-2.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
