:: WinGate Licensing ::

WinGate 6.0 has three different types of license: Standard, Professional and Enterprise. There are different features included in each of these different license types. Furthermore, since it is possible to activate a previous-version WinGate license with WinGate 6.0, it is possible that some installations may have further limitations on functionality. Finally, some features are only available on certain operating systems.
