# Selection of License Manager - Others

### Selection of License Manager for Protected Data Files Under Windows

Selection of the License Manager for data files with licensing protection is determined by the location of the protected application or the Web browser that is used to access the data files, and not by the location of the data files. Therefore, the process for selection of the License Manager is the same as for any other protected application on a Windows platform.

### Selection of License Manager Under Mac

On Mac platforms, only the Admin LM is supported. For a local protection key, all access requests are handled by the local Admin LM. For a remote protection key, the local Admin LM passes the access request to the Admin LM on the remote machine where the protection key is located.

### Selection of License Manager Under Linux

On Linux Intel and ARM platforms, selection of the License Manager is identical to the process for Windows platforms, with one exception: the External LM is not supported and therefore cannot be selected.

### License Manager Under Android

On Android platforms, only the Integrated LM is supported. The Integrated LM handles all access requests for a local protection key. Remote protection keys are not supported.
