* The OpenJDK JRE bundled with Oxygen is created using jlink from the Eclipse Adoptium Temurin distribution and jmods of the corresponding version of JavaFX by Gluon.

Note:

  • If you have difficulties installing the product please use the zip archive (64-bit) distribution instead. Just unzip it in a folder where you have write permissions and use the product launchers.

Instructions:

Install

  • Run the installation program and follow the instructions.

Run

  • To run the application start oxygenAuthor26.1.exe or oxygenAuthor.bat from the product installation directory.
  • Copy to clipboard the license key you have received by email and paste it in the license registration dialog box from the application.

Uninstall

  • Backup all valuable data from the Oxygen installation folder.
  • Run the Oxygen Uninstaller from the Start Menu or uninstall.exe from the installation folder.

License Server

  • If you are using floating licenses, you must set up and use an Oxygen License Server (because this is how floating licenses are designed to work with Oxygen instances). For a large number of user-based licenses (20 or more), it is highly recommended to use an Oxygen License Server (because this is the easiest way to keep track of license usage and helps comply with the Oxygen EULA).

Troubleshooting:

To fix this, you must first allow the root user to access the X server, by running this command (from your user account, not root) prior to running the Oxygen installer as root:
    xhost +SI:localuser:root
