I am upgrading from 4.1 to 4.3. It seems to need a new license since it only works with /rootSuffix:Exp in command line arguments. If I don't have that there, my ribbon tab doesn't show up. It has a license key from 4.1.

If Select changes major or minor version numbers (x.y) then you must rebuild your package to reference the new Select DLLs.
As a separate issue, if you change the public/private key, version, or culture of your shell package for whatever reason, you will need a new SoftPro package license.

Yes, I know about the new select dll's. I did that. But now, how can I get the new licenses?

The instructions are in the SDK help file at Cookbook/All Packages and API Projects/How do I get a Package License? Review the information regarding creating the fully qualified assembly name for your package then contact SoftPro Sales at (800)848-0143 for assistance.

does it make sense that my fully qualified name is the same as it was in 4.1?

If you did not change the package class names/namespaces, public/private key, version, or culture, then it will be the same.
