please note that a deployment via K1000 will not run as the logged on user, so maybe that´s the problem installing the license key, eg. if it is a per user license.

The application is being installed on a clean VM, then it will be tested my application lead as tester deployed to a anther clean VM.


Thank you for your help

Use a lightweight snapshotting tool (I'm currently setting great store by 'Advanced Uninstaller Pro') when you run the activation. The changes that it records will - hopefully! - be clearly in either a machine or user context, i.e. they'll be stored in a file in the application's folder structure, in the 'All Users' profile structure, or in the logged-in user's profile. You can then determine how best to deploy it.

I'm assuming you have yet to learn how to use the search engine in this forum, so I will point you at this thread:

  • Thank you for your help, but Unfortunately I have been trying this and it did not salve my issue. I still cant not get the application to activate and register. - ITreaper 9 years ago
    • Sorry, but I am unable to suggest any other things to try. This has always been a simple app to package so it is hard for me to figure out why there are so many issues you are experiencing. - EdT 9 years ago
