The regular installation procedure should work: Settings > Licensing > Add license, then browse for the file or paste the file contents in.

The only time I've seen the word "reset" used in Splunk licensing is with a reset license when you go over license too many times in one month.

Are you sure the license file you are using is the right one?

I always use the method to copy and paste the license file TEXT into the text box, you could try that method too.
