How to get the ung.act file

ung.act is a file that contains information about your license. In order to get it, you need to activate the software on the developer’s machine.

To activate USB Network Gate, take the following steps:

1. Launch USB Network Gate and select Help > Enter activation code from the main menu.

2. In the Activation window, type the SDK activation code you have obtained from us and click the Activate button.

After the activation, the file ung.act will be located in the following directory:

"%ProgramData%\Electronic Team\UNG"

Note: Once the software is activated, you will be able to find the ung.act file by selecting SDK > Get activation file in the main menu.

After the activation, the GUI might stop working on the developer’s computer. If you want to continue utilizing the proprietary user interface, you can reactivate USB Network Gate using your Single License activation code.

Note: The software should be reactivated after you copy the ung.act file to your installer.

When your application is being installed on a user computer, the ung.act file should be placed in the same folder as the UsbService.exe file. 

Note: There may already be an old ung.act file on a user computer if USB Network Gate has been installed there before. This can be checked at the following path: 

%ProgramData%\Electronic Team\UNG\ung.act 

If so, the old file has to be replaced with your current ung.act file.

Install the USB Network Gate drivers

Once you have copied the software files to the redistribution package, you should install the

USB Network Gate drivers:

1. Select the folder depending on your operating system:

● NT6 for 32-bit Windows 7, 8, 8.1

● NT6x64 for 64-bit Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and Windows Server 2008R2, 2012, 2012R2

● NT10 for 32-bit Windows 10

● NT10x64 for 64-bit Windows 10, 11 and Windows Server 2016, 2019

● NTxARM64 for 64-bit Windows 10, 11 on ARM

2. Find the file setup_server_ung.exe in the folder that you selected and execute it.

Install and register the Service

In order to install the Service, run the following commands:

To install and register the Service: UsbService.exe install or UsbService64.exe install

To start the Service: UsbService.exe enable or UsbService64.exe enable

Note: The Service file should be selected according to your operating system:

UsbService.exe for 32-bit platforms

UsbService64.exe for 64-bit platforms

Install the RDP plugin

To be able to use USB Network Gate in an RDP session, the usb4rdp.dll (usb4rdp64.dll) file should be registered on the target PC. To do this, follow the steps below:

1. Add the following key to the Registry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Terminal Server

Client\Default\AddIns\usb4rdp

2. Create a string type variable with the name "Name". The variable should contain the full

path to the plugin:

usb4rdp32.dll - for 32-bit systems

usb4rdp64.dll - for 64-bit systems

usb4rdparm64.dll - for ARM64-based systems

The required plugin can be found in the following location: %ProgramFiles%\Electronic Team\UNG

Install the Device Isolation Components

1. To install the USB Network Gate Device Isolation Components on your computer, execute the setup_server_ung.exe file with the parameter “/i”:

Setup_server_ung.exe /i

Note: When installing the software drivers, you should execute only one of these commands:

Setup_server_ung.exe /i - to install the USB Network Gate drivers with the Device Isolation

Components.

Setup_server_ung.exe - to install only the USB Network Gate drivers.

2. Restart your computer.
