Object Dock will not install...in fact none of my apps will...says activations keys are wrong! (Resolved!)

Friday, August 17, 2018 by WebGizmos | Discussion: ObjectDock

Ok...pc crashed and needed to reinstall some apps...started with ObjectDock..."serial# wrong!?" I haven't even tried others so I don't get frustrated. So anyone know what the problem is? These are all paid for apps with serial#'s downloaded from Stardock and "should" be valid! Is this going to continue into the future?

Please check the serial number that you have entered and ensure that it is associated with the email you used. Try to activate the product again. If you are using Stardock Central you can right-click on the product and attempt to activate without reinstalling. Please include this log file when contacting [email protected]."

So what's the deal? Am I ever going to get to use my ObjectDock again? I think this is dragging on long enough now.

Easy, Web.......... I am doing what I can to get a decade old legacy app working for you.  Finding dev time, and justifying it, is not as easy as you may believe.

I PM'd you a new key, Web - make sure you use it and only have version 1.9 installed - you can use the purge to get rid of all and start fresh:
