Bartender license in a version and client in another version
Dear All,
Can I have my license server Bartender version 2016 and my client is on bartender version 10.
As I have an application which is working perfectly with bartender version 10.
Does my server license need to be the same bartender version as my workstation ?

Yes, License Server is backwards compatible with old version of BarTender clients. You can have 2016 License Server installed on a dedicated computer and client machines running older versions of BarTender connect to the 2016 License Server. However, the other way around will not work.

I have a related question. I have 2016 installed on my development machine but need to support an older installation at a customer with version 10.1. Therefore I link with the 10.1 DLL. I have a test machine with 2016 also, and when I run the application here it replaces the DLL automatically with 2016 DLL and startup correctly.
But on my development machine I get an exception that the 10.1 assembly could not be read. Why can I not run the application on the development machine ?

I noticed the previous posts was 7 years old, so I thought I ask this question. We have a BarTender license server running on v2022 and like to refresh the license to BarTender 11.4. Can we keep the BarTender clients running with 2016 or 2022 and connect to the BarTender license server v11.4?

The 2016 versions will not be connecting to the 2022 licence anyway, they are licenced differently. From v2019 onwards the BarTender installs all connected to a central licence contained with Administration Console whilst 2016 and earlier do not.
For the 2022 clients, yes they can connect to a v11.4 Admin Console licence (2022 was effectively v11.3)
