Removing License Key Repository

Importing license key inappropriately can cause you to corrupt the license key repository. The only solution possible at that point would be removing all the existing keys and then re-importing them again.

Using the License Key Manager

You can remove all keys inside through the License Key Manager. In the License Key Manager, select License Keys > Remove All Keys. After that the License Key Repository will become empty.
