Resolve just asked me to activate randomly!

PostSun Jan 31, 2021 7:24 pm

Hi

I am on the DR17Beta for the M1 and I've just logged into my Mac and DR and it asked me to activate again?
It also said I didn't have any more activations left?
I didn't know there was a limit...
I am about to rebuild my Mac as there are issues with various bits of software and obviously will install DR again...

Will i have a problem doing this?
I have the P4K and need the DR for editing...

Cheers
Mat

Unless you can't reach BM's servers, they'll be no problem. The third activation will disable the very first one, and you can repeat that process.
My disaster protection: export a .drp file to a physically separated storage regularly.
