File Encryption Demo License Exceeded blocking Enterprise 8.0 to assign new certs.

Question

I recently upgraded our Enterprise version to 8.0 and now it seems like every time we install a new safeguard install, it installs File Encryption component with the install and it's make our File Encryption license count go up. We had 5 demo File Encryption licenses but now the count reached to 7. It's causing problems. It's not assigning any new certs to new installs. I have a warning at the bottom of the Licenses tab which reads "Your license is exceeded. SGN server will no longer distribute policies to your clients". Is there a fix for this? 
 
 Thank you

I found the problem. With Client version 8.0, standard install is installing Synchronized Encryption which uses "File Encryption" license. This is a very stupid way of prompting a product. This caused a huge problem. This caused us to exceed our File encryption license which then stopped assigning new certs to new safeguard installs. I had to track down all the machines which got 8.0 installed and uninstall Synchronized Encryption part which brought the license count down. In case anyone else needs this.

I found your answer. 
 Run this in query and you'll find all the machines that have these licenses installed 
 /* Selecting all machines that have SafeGuard Enterprise Synchronized Encryption installed */ use SafeGuard SELECT SAFE_GUARD_DIR.SGD_name as 'Machine name', IVT_INST_FEATURES.IIF_FEATURE as 'Feature Installed', convert (VARCHAR,IVT_INST_FEATURES.IIF_MODIFY_DATE,3) as 'Last modified' FROM IVT_INST_FEATURES INNER JOIN SAFE_GUARD_DIR ON IVT_INST_FEATURES.IIF_MACHINE_ID = SAFE_GUARD_DIR.SGD_ID where IVT_INST_FEATURES.IIF_FEATURE like 'NextGen%' order by SAFE_GUARD_DIR.SGD_name
