Problem with activating

Saturday, March 10, 2007 by welshdragon | Discussion: Stardock Support General



Just wondering if anyone can help me with a problem with windowblinds5.5 and iconpackager I have entered my registration codes for both applications but every time I open them up to change something they keep asking me to activate them time after time and I am getting a bit fed up with having to activate them every time anyone have a solution for me

Thanks

are these stand alone downloads you're activating?

or were these downloaded, installed and activated using the Stardock Central browser?

Open the WindowBlinds Configuration screen and click on System Information.  Copy/paste that info here.

If you're not, you should be registering/installing these using SDC. Having said that, what firewall are you using?

The firewall I am using is called Preventon I have used SDC to update and activate
but I still get the same outcome where it asks me to activate the products every time I open them.

Disable Prevention, enable the Windows firewall and open IP or WB (might have to do it twice). Better?

Did you have the trial version previously installed before installing the purchased version?

oi


if you had the trial it needed to be uninstalled first.

uninstall them, get Stardock Central, register in SDC, then use it to download and install

Have you tried what yrag suggested?
Disable Prevention, enable the Windows firewall and open IP or WB (might have to do it twice). Better?
