Weird SE v20 borrowed license issue...

Weird SE v20 borrowed license issue...

Weird SE v20 borrowed license issue...

(OP)
Hello chaps,


Weird irritating little issue...

My system runs far more stably with a borrowed license, as opposed to drawing one cross the network every time I need one (I run a laptop, so for me having the borrowed license is more practical too - if I have to go offshore etc. I always have a copy of SE to work on then!)

My issue is that my license has only a few weeks to go, so rather than waiting for it to expire and then renewing it, running the risk of being away when I need to do this, I wanted to return the current license and then borrow a new one (something I have done before.)

So there we are in License Borrowing, I click on the "Return All Licenses" button and it declares that "All borrowed licenses have been returned". But it lies! It still states I have a license on my system with an expiry date of mid-March...

Any ideas as this a PITA!


Jon
