What is suppressed license meaning?

Suppressed license is a term related to software licensing. It refers to a license that has been deactivated by the vendor due to non-compliance or breach of terms and conditions. The suppressed license can result from various infringement activities such as unauthorized use, overuse, or distribution of the licensed software without permission.

When a license becomes suppressed, the user loses the right to use the software and access its features. The vendor may take legal action against the user and may demand compensation for the breach of the licensing agreement.

In most cases, suppressed licenses can be restored on payment of a fine or by agreeing to new licensing terms. However, in some cases, the suppression may be permanent, and the user may need to purchase a new license to use the software legally.

It is important to read and understand the licensing agreement thoroughly before using any software to avoid any non-compliance and subsequent suppression of license.
