    I think you can goahead with the process what you explained and before that check license is uploaded , users created in the Test DB2.

    I've done that a lot of times without any problems.

    The license is not a problem, because it is put in the subdirectory where the server.exe file is.

    Actually, you already did:

    PS: it might be necessary to give extra permissions to the new files so the user of the DB service (usually Network Service) has full access to them.
