To create the license key file the first time, run the downloaded setup program normally, and follow the instructions in the email you receive after purchasing TextPad. Afterwards, look for TextPadPKE.xml in the following folders, in this order:
- %PROGRAMDATA%\Helios\TextPad
- %APPDATA%\Helios\TextPad
