Having Activation or Re-Activation Issues? Read This!

Activation consistently fails after update of Windows and Beta3

 

I have recently updated to Windows 10 and also today to the new beta release 3.

 

When starting DCS, it detects a 'significant' hardware change and wants to activate Mig21.

 

It can't activate Mig21-Bis, it just keeps going in loops without the activation ever working... all the other modules just work. What gives?

[Steggles]

There is a sticky thread in this very forum about that. It's a known problem with the protection system.

[kungfoo]

Thank you, that fiex it. I looked at the threads, but somehow overlooked that one. Thanks for helping.

After today's update, the Mig-21bis activation BUG roarded it's ugly head again.

The Activation Key is not valid any more due to significant changes of the computer hardware configuration. Click "Retry" to reactivate the application.

If the error recurs, click "Error report" and send the report to product technical support.

 

Had to re-activate on the previous update.

 

It's not how to by-pass the problem, it's about time it gets FIXED!

 

For the time being my Mig stays on the ground.

[SpeedStick]

Yep I am grounded too.

[Kayos]

Agreed, grounding the 21 until this gets fixed.

If you are worried about activations-

 

Write to us and your key will be replaced immediately

 

EDIT: we are working on trying to fix the issue.

Thank LN you have all my respect. Thanks for the new key.

 

After today's update. I lost 3 keys trying to activate again. It only works after you delete the registry key. After the MiG activated normally. I sent email to retrieve the key.

Since the 1.5.1 update, the MiG-21bis module asks for activation twice whenever I start DCS OpenBeta.

 

Since I don't currently plan on flying the MiG-21, I cancel these dialogs, but it would be nice if they disappeared altogether, since no major hardware changes took place recently (as in: no hardware changes at all :music_whistling:).

I will try to help a little with the Activation Issue for the Mig-21.

 

It seems that if you REACTIVATE the module on the Open Beta, and after you try to play on 1.2.16, the copy protection ask you again to REACTIVATE in 1.2.16

 

After that if you play AGAIN on OPEN BETA, it ask you to REACTIVATE again.

 

So it´s a rebound problem not only in Open Beta but also in 1.2.16

 

So be careful if you reactivate the Mig-21 in Open Beta and then you launch in 1.2,16 because they are going to ask you again for the same. And viceversa.

That's the problem I have:

Starforce windows opens everytime I launch the game and play any module, wheather I play MiG-21 or not.

Hello I have only 5 activation and I only have installed the Mig-21 ones. In two days I cant fly the Mig-21.

 

No hot-fix planed for the next hours?

[Johnny Dioxin]

I just updated to the new OB 1.5.1 and straight away got the message that my MiG-21bis was deactivated "due to hardware changes".

 

I exited (twice, as it comes up twice) to come here and seek a solution.

 

I wasn't even running the sim itself, just the updater :huh:

 

Although I had the MiG-21bis installed and activated in the previous 1.5.0 beta, I haven't flown it in months! (Too busy with other stuff atm)

[Airway]

I'm down to six activation for just one installation and activation.

Due to bugs and issues,

No problems with any other module - why?

 

[Sokol1_br]

Well, before install this 1.51 patch I deactivate the Mig-21, install the patch and activate again, no activation was used, remain 9. :thumbup:

[Johnny Dioxin]

Yes - that's great when you know there's a problem beforehand ;)

 

I didn't - but I'm not really bothered, it's just something that maybe should be looked at. If the upgrade to 1.5 release version is going to cost people activations, they need to know about it in advance - such as in the patch release notes.

Same here, but I am down to 4. With only one real change in the hardware...

Que poca seriedad esta empresa, ya perdi 2 serials con uds. uno cuando cambie de computadora y otro ahora con la 1.5.1.

 

* Cuando cambie de CPU pude desactivar todos los productos menos la porqueria esta del MIG-21

* Y ahora se actualiza la beta a la 1.5.1 y pierdo otra mas, y no solo eso sino que me desactiva de forma definitiva la key para la 1.2.16

 

Realmente tienen un soporte malo, ahora pregunto ya resignado de perder serials a lo loco con uds. puedo volver a activarlo sin que me vuelva a pedir nuevamente serial, o lo borro y lo dejo archivado hasta que vuelva Jesus a la tierra a buscarnos a todos los cristianos.

 

Ojala se los coma un Leon :/

If you don´t have nothing better to said, this link is enough.

[tintifaxl]

Same here with 1.5.1 ...

 

The activation issues for the Mig-21 module have become very annoying for me now. @LN: Do you have any plans to remedy the situation once and for all? For me this influences my buying descision for the F-14.

[Blade_meister]

I have the same problem. I have at least one, if not two, reactivations because of a hardware change when no changes were made. Who or where do we write at LN to recover reactivations ? Thanks in advance.

 

S! Blade<><

5 New Activations have now been added to every serial number regardless of previous level.

 

The final fix for this issue will eventually require you to re-activate one final time. More information on that later.

Thanks, Cobra
