DCS A-10 is activated, but each time my game starts, the activation window appears.

[oobe.pl]

I've reinstaled DCS World and A10 module. Each time my game runs, activation window pops up. I can close it and the game runs fine, but doing so every goddamn time is kind of annoying. I run a10_protect.exe and it states that A10 module is activated, so at the moment I'm clueless.

i have this as well

only not every time so now and than is asked me to activate random modules

 

Possible bug?

Read the top of the activation window popup - what does it say there? To make sure that it's not relating to some other module.

Man... and I consider myself quite perceptive... :megalol:

 

Yeah, didn't thought those were connected. I was running A-10 so it was totally baffling. I've installed BS2 mod ahead of time, waiting for it to appear in my mailbox. Thanks for your insight. :pilotfly:

You're not alone there - happened to me too. Kept inserting the wrong licenske key. :D

So what did you do to rectify this problem as I am having this same kind of problem with the A10, but it does not like the serial number but eventually it lets me in? I had installed the A10 from DVD but than I un-installed that DVD, as I found out it would not work with the world application, so I sent the DVD back and purchased the A10 program from DCS and now I cannot get the serial number to work. Any ideas.

Did nothing to rectify the problem since there was no problem in the first place; it wasn't asking for activation for the product the user believed, as found through reading the name on top-left of the activation window.

 

Also, there was no need to send the DVD back. That serial number works for DCS World. The version contained on the DVD does not, but the serial number does.

 

What does it say in the title bar of the activation window you are seeing?

I ended up giving up as I received a reply finally on about December 23rd, and I tried the two suggestions given and the problem still remained. It had taken two months as of the 23rd of December and the thing still did not work, so I sent back the Thrustmaster HOTAS assembly and incurred a $100.00 charge as a result of the support for the DCS software support people taking so long to reply to my problem each time, and I had to pay the $35.00 shipping charge to get the Thrustmaster back to the vendor. I have requested my money back from DCS, which was two weeks ago and I have still not heard from them, so I am going to initiate a charge back tomorrow as it appears they have no intent to refund the money for the A10 software. This entire support response is totally unacceptable as I have never had such poor service. The sad thing about all of this is that I had purchased the Thrustmaster HOTAS and the DCS software to get more familiar with the A10 as I am now working on the real A10 flight simulator. As one software engineer to another, that being myself to DCS, your support is horrible.

So just to update everyone, I initiated the charge back for the cost of the software and my bank credited my account for the $39.00. This entire fiasco ended up costing me $130.00 as I returned the Thrustmaster HOTAS equipment to Amazon a month past the return date, as a result of the horrible customer support from Digital Combat Simulator. Word to the future people, do not buy the Thurstmaster equipment until you are able to get the DCS software working correctly, which could take four or more months, as you could lose a great deal of money.

 

Shop carefully!
