Copy Protection Ranting

[CAT_101st]

I just want to express my extreme dis pleasure with your activation process. At this point due to having put a new CPU in my system I can not play any of my paid for DCS modules. I have tried to deactivate them cant do that with out taking apart 2 computer to put my CPU back in this one. Cant just burn a activation ether to install it. The windows just stay on my screen and I have to reboot to close them out. I even tried to untie the modules from my PC and still no luck. I guess I have to do a uninstall and reinstall the dam thing.

Why would you still have the hardware check if anyone can arsine the SN to any PC anyway. Your system really just sucks. I have 5 guys that cant fly because of this crap. This is just so frustrating to have to deal with. I have tried the deactivating in the past and it did not work then either.

I uninstalled the modules and reinstalled new ones and same result I guess I have to do a complete uninstall/reinstall to get it to work. I am very vary vary un happy right now. :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

 

I should be able to unbind the modules from this PC and rebind them to get a new hardware code. But no you guys have to make things difficult for any one that wants a faster PC. Sure I can un bind the modules and give them to some one else, Good god this is stupid.

The windows just stay on my screen and I have to reboot to close them out.

What windows are that? Can you post a screen shot of them? Are you talking about the activation dialogs or where the serial number has to be entered?

 

... and why do you have to reboot to get rid of them??

The error one is new. It usually asks 3 times to activate my mod and never does, the screen's just stays their and if I mouse over them it just spins. I can drag them but can't close them.

have you tried this?

or deleting the licenses from the registry, also i though a CPU change needed a windows reinstall.

 

if you want to delete the licenses from the registry manually, its HKEY_users, then search Eagle Dynamics and press F3 until you find it.

Karambiatos Thanks that helped was able to activate my mods. I still think this is a bad thing having to go true this much trouble just to install a new CPU. And just as a side note deactivation is harder than it should be. their should be a button in the manage mods section that performs this task. A deactivate all mods button.

 

Changes in hardware don't affect windows at all. I have windows on a flash drive that I can boot up on any PC. Over the years I have mad many upgrades to may a PC and never had to reinstall windows, any version.

Deactivating first was the correct course of action. It is a published fact that a CPU replacement will use an activation.

This is correct. You can see this information in the QuickStart document. New activation is required when the cumulative changes to the system exceeds 12 points. CPU change, as listed in the document, is 13 points.

 

Sorry for the inconvenience.
