Common problems
What people ask us most
Installation and activation
Most first-run problems are activation: the key is entered with a trailing space, or the machine has no route out to the licence server. Contact support with your order number and we can re-issue.
Moving to a new computer
A perpetual licence moves with you. Deactivate on the old machine where you still can, then activate on the new one; if the old machine is gone, support can release the seat.
Re-downloading an old release
Installers are archived well beyond the current version. If you bought a release we no longer list, ask - we can usually still supply it.
