Hello folks
I got Dorico 5 recently with the loyalty discount after first giving the trial a go.
In the Activation Manager I expected my Trial activation to be somehow upgraded to a full activation. But it lists both:
It’s just a minor thing, but is this ok? Or is there going to be some kind of mess around the time when the trial expires? Should I just deactivate the trial?
Let me know what you think.
Thanks
IIRC the general advice has been that one can deactivate the trial and activate the purchased program and that nothing bad will happen when the trial expires.
Yes, they are separate licences – make sure you deactivate the trial, as I think it’s possible for the expired trial to take precedence under some circumstances, if it’s still active.
SAM shouldn’t allow expired licences to take precedence over current licences - it’s possible that this could have happened in early versions of SAM but it shouldn’t be happening now.
Well, everything works, but this may be considered a bit excessive, even if there shouldn’t be any limit to the number of D5 license owned…
Thanks everyone!
So the consensus seems to be, it should be fine, but just to be safe it’s probably best to just deactivate the trial?
I think it’s indifferent…
