Windows 10: How to share USB License Dongle over network?

How do you share a USB License/Security Dongle, over a network? So that PC-1 has a Security USB Dongle License connected to it and I would like PC-2, PC-3, PC-4, to all be able to access the license on the Dongle that is connected to PC-1.The dongle only includes 1 license, but I'm hoping that by connecting them all to the same network and sharing folder, we don't have to keep passing the USB Dongle back and forth.

How do you share a USB License/Security Dongle, over a network?

So that PC-1 has a Security USB Dongle (License) connected to it and I would like PC-2, PC-3, PC-4, to all be able to access the license on the Dongle that is connected to PC-1.

The dongle only includes 1 license, but I'm hoping that by connecting them all to the same network and sharing folder, we don't have to keep passing the USB Dongle back and forth.

Paul,

Yes the license is on the USB Dongle and it is a business environment.

[Side Note: We use several other programs/softwares that require licenses, and all the computers are linked to a main computer with the other licenses on them and that is how we access the other licenses for our other programs.]

This USB Dongle/license is for a new software, and is the first time we have worked with a USB Dongle/license.

I understand that we can only have 1 active user at a time, but it is very annoying having to physically pass the USB back and forth, when we are in different rooms/stations.

Thanks,

Good day Ryan, thanks for your question. I am glad to be able to provide assistance to you today. Just to check, is the license itself of the Security USB dongle that you are trying to share? Is this a setup on a corporate environment?

Regards,
