The #&*^#)(* Activation of modules

[PeterSanders]

Hi

 

I purchased a new HD for ONE MAIN reason, so that I could use EMC9 more efficiently. My other HD was quite full, so I needed additional space to hold any created media files, PLUS I needed to reinstall EMC9 to have IT work properly.

 

So having ENDURED all of the hassle and inconvenience of new HD and re-installing NUMEROUS software packages including EMC9, things were getting back to normal - or so I thought.

 

Now I find that ALREADY activated modules want to be activated AGAIN!!!!!

 

(They were RE-activated after the fresh HD,XP,EMC9 install)

 

This is a pain in the first place, having to do it again is yet another pain, what makes it worse is that the activation process hangs after pressing the NEXT button.

 

Also as you probably know EACH module has to be activated INDIVIDUALLY even thought the activation process says "checking for other modules to activate" and NEVER FINDS an other module!

 

As you can imagine I am displeased to say the least. Is there some way to stop this activation dialog resurfacing each time I want to use parts of EMC9 ? Or can I actually activate *ALL* modules at once?

 

Regards

As far as I know, I only activated the mpeg codec and nothing else. I did have to register the software and two other modules in the suite.

I registered once and activated once. I've never seen any message stating it was checking other modules to be activated.
