I'm right with you Roger!
I deactivated and then, rather than delete the folders, I commented them out, just in case.
It'll be some weeks before I switch back. If it goes wonky on me, I'll pass along the info to the L2.

B

When I uninstalled the the trial and reinstalled the licensed Symphony, the activation seemed to work but I kept getting the grey splash screen inviting me to activate . I need to sort this out . . . don't selete those folders until AFTER you have deactivated!
