P3D Reactivation

[dougal]

Went to do a nice clean 3.1 reinstall, only to discover I need to reactivate my licence. Anyone have experience of this? How long does it usually take?

I've never done this myself but I think LM are quite good about it. To avoid this in future, make sure you perform an uninstall properly, in my experience this avoids you having to contact LM.

I'd heard this before about the uninstall, so I used the original setup file downloaded from LM to uninstall but still had this happen.

I have done an unusually high number of them though to run some tests, so not surprised it happened.

Just have to sit on my thumbs for now;-)

I might reinstall Crysis3 while i'm waiting;-)

I believe it is recommended to use the normal Windows control Panel to uninstall the simulator, and not the setup file.
The standard un-installation method will free the licence automatically.

Gotta love chinese whispers..... I was told the exact opposite;-)

And LM activation email has come through.

Well done LM, I'd say that's pretty good service:-)
