# Step 4. Provide License File

At the **License** step of the wizard, do either of the following:

- Browse to a local folder on your workstation to locate the license file supplied to you by Veeam. To do that, click **Browse to local license file**.
- Log in to your Veeam account to upload a license file from the Veeam downloads page. To do that, click **Sigh in with Veeam**, enter the credentials of the account and choose the necessary file from the list of available licenses.

Note that you will not be able to continue installation without providing a license.

::: tip

You can configure Orchestrator to update the license automatically and enable proactive support. If automatic license update is enabled, Orchestrator proactively communicates with the Veeam License Update Server to obtain and install a new license before the current license expires; if proactive support is enabled, Orchestrator periodically sends an anonymized file with the current Orchestrator configuration and statistical information to the Veeam Server.

You can also these options later [when configuring Orchestrator](updating_license_automatically.md).
