When you’re done, you should have the appropriate HASP driver installed. Double click on it, and then follow the instructions.

This executable file can be run just by double clicking on it. Next, you’ll want to unzip (extract) the contents of the downloaded zip, and locate a file named HASPUserSetup.exe. Ideally you would have all programs closed, and some may even suggest disabling your anti-virus. First you should close any embroidery software installer that you have running. The HASP driver is extremely easy to install. After accepting a rather lengthy user license agreement, I downloaded a file named Sentinel_LDK_Run-time_setup.zip. The page offers various downloads, but the one we want is called Sentinel HASP/LDK – Windows GUI Run-time Installer. So we just need to get the proper HASP key drivers from the SafeNet website, and we’ll be good (provided that we correctly install the driver and it’s the right one).Ī quick search on Google for “HASP driver” led me to this page. If your embroidery software installation stops at dongle verification, you will need a “device driver” that allows your computer to operate your dongle.īernina and Janome dongles, as far as I know, are all technically a USB “HASP key”. That information, or hardware instruction, is called a “driver”. Especially if you are installing the embroidery software on a computer that is newer than that of the embroidery software’s system requirements, the information the computer needs to use the dongle just isn’t available. The answer to your installation woes is that your computer doesn’t know what the dongle is. I can’t say that I can solve everyone’s problem, but if you own Janome or Bernina embroidery software, I just might have the answer you are looking for.

Normally the installer sees the dongle and continues installation, but I’ve seen many times when the dongle isn’t verified, and installation cannot proceed. During installation of some embroidery software, the installer will ask you to plug in your dongle.
