MC on the 30 day temp license.
If and when that 30 day period goes by and the license is not upgraded to a
permanent lic, after the 30 day period, those projects are toast. I do not
know what happens in a shared storage environment. Would really like to
know.
If the licenses are upgraded to Permanent during the trial period, then
there's nothing to report.
I currently have 2 systems at the office with the lic expired (around 40
days). Putting in a new, permanent license or even a dongle driven version
still does not open either the Project or the Bins.
I'd like to know why or what it is I'm doing wrong, if that's what is
causing the problem.
