If Im working in ArcMap without a WaterGEMS model open, am I still using a WaterGEMS license?
For version 08.11.00.30 and below, you will still be using a WaterGEMS license. To prevent this from happening, you would need to first un-integrate WaterGEMS from Arcmap by using the “WaterGEMSXMUnreg.exe” file, located in the installation folder. Please be sure you have the latest cumulative patch set applied, before attempting this. In the next version of WaterGEMS, license usage will only be recorded if you have an open WaterGEMS project in your ArcMap session.
