before i reinstall windows, can i save my \"liscense.xml\" file and the \"Settings\" folder and then just paste them back into the ectune folder after the reinstall? will that work so i don't have to go through registration and request another liscense for my ostrich?
You don't have to do anything...the last version has expired and Calvin hasn't put up the new one yet...when he puts it up, he will send an e-mail to update...when he does, run force update and you will be back in business.
o, too late lol, i just reinstalled vista on a vm. so just so i understand this for next time. i DONT have to run force update untill calvin sends out the new release? running force update before locks up the system?
You're missing the point, it wasn't the force update you did that locked the system, it's locked because current ectune version has expired and Calvin hasn't released a new version yet, valid for another month. This policy it's needing some adjustments.
yep same problem here. i got the email, force updated, says updated to 0.0.2.3 r9, still locked out. this sucks, i just got my new wide-band working on serial yesterday afternoon, didnt have time to do any tuning because of Christmas and now that i have time i am locked out. merry Christmas

Yes we are all having the same problem. Though I just got the e-mail and ran the force update and it's still expired...LoL But ya, you will get that message anytime the software expires before Calvin releases an update. So for next time, just wait until you get an e-mail from Calvin, then run force update and everything should be fine.
thats the thing, i didnt run force update untill i got the email. so why isnt working?
