Get your download and licence key.
Open the Lemon Squeezy receipt sent to the email you used at checkout. Follow its order link to find your Watermarked Windows download and copy your licence key.
Find my download & licenceOpens Lemon Squeezy My Orders. Use the same email as checkout. You don't need to purchase again to retrieve your order.
Open Watermarked on Windows.
The Windows package is a ZIP. Right-click it, choose Extract All, and open the extracted folder. Double-click Watermarked.exe.
Keep the extracted folder together, including its tools and other files. You don't need to install .NET or set up video tools separately with the complete package.
For 64-bit Windows 10 or 11. Open the app from the extracted folder, not from inside the ZIP. Mac is currently waitlist only.
Paste your key. Start your first batch.
On the app's activation screen, paste the licence key from your order and choose Activate licence. Keep your internet connection on for this step.
Once activation is confirmed, choose Choose files to bring in your photos and videos. If you've already opened the workspace, use Licence in the bottom bar to return to activation.
Your licence key belongs in the desktop app. We don't ask you to paste it into this guide or a support message.
Your first export, in order.
- Import a few photos or videos. Start with a small batch you can easily review.
- Choose your watermark. Use text, an image or both. For different handles, turn off Same watermark for all destinations and edit each destination's branding.
- Select your destinations. Set sizes and formats, and enable promotional previews where you want them.
- Choose an output folder and export. Review the finished files before sharing. Your originals stay untouched.
Something in the way?
I can't find my receipt or licence key.
Check your spam folder, then open My Orders using the email you entered at checkout. If the order still isn't there, contact us with that email and your order reference. Don't buy a second subscription.
The app says my signup is still being confirmed.
The payment provider's confirmation may still be arriving. Wait a moment, then select Activate licence again. Check that you copied the complete key and that your internet connection is working. If the message persists, contact us.
My licence is linked to another computer.
One licence covers one Windows account and computer. Use Help & contact to request a device transfer. You can find the device code under Device & subscription details on the app's Licence screen.
When does my trial start, and how do I cancel?
The three-day trial starts when signup is completed, not when you first open the app. Your receipt shows the relevant dates. Use Manage subscription to cancel before the trial ends to avoid the first charge. Uninstalling does not cancel billing.
The app won't open or activate.
Make sure you extracted the entire ZIP and are using 64-bit Windows 10 or 11. Check your internet connection for activation. Send the app version and the exact error text through Help & contact, without including your full licence key or private media.
