I've installed FB6 on Windows Server 2003 and installed my license key file for all users.

Everytime I start FB I'm told the evaluation period has expired. I can reinstall the license key file again and it tells me "License Key installed. Your license details will show on the splash screen when you restart FinalBuilder"

But I'm always told my eval has expired.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Patrick Burrell

Hi Patric   
  
 Make sure the license key file has a .license file extension. Some browsers (IE6 in particular) change the file extension when downloading the file from our site.
