Activation necessary after activation (Q868)
The information in this article applies to:
MODDE 11
SIMCA 14.1
Summary:
If you installed the software as a trial-version the very first time you installed (e.g. not entering an activation key), multiple activations may be necessary to keep using the software.
Symptoms:
After 30 days a message that you need to activate is displayed in the software.
Cause:
The very first activation key, which in for the trial version internally is 'demo', triggers the reactivation.
Workaround:
As an administrator, remove the 'demo'-entry in the registry either manually (see More Information) or by running the attached script.
Status:
Will be fixed in the next release.
More Information:
Change the registry value "Activation Key" to something other than 'demo', like <empty> or "demo1" in the relevant key;
