I have TWO system drives. XLN is on both, but listed by XLN as being two different computers by their authorization scheme.
One of these main system drives is several years old and I wanted to make a full system back up of it. I just cloned that main system drive today. My intention was to replace that older, non ssd drive with the newly cloned one and keep the original (non ssd one) as a full system backup.
When I go to launch any XLN stuff however, I get a message that I'm in DEMO mode.
When I go to the installer, it tells me that I've reached my "computer limit". It has my current two main hard drives listed as two different computers, but really, it's all the same pc tower, I just boot into one or the other, as they have different programs on them.
When trying to swap ONE of those main system drives for it's new clone, the XLN installer is now reading this newly cloned drive as a brand new computer, so XLN thinks I'm trying to install on even a THIRD machine.
It tells me I have to deactivate one machine. Like I said, they are ALL on ONE machine. If I deactivate the drive that I cloned from, and authorize the newly cloned drive, then... XLN won't work should I need to install and boot from the old drive.
Is there any way to fix this?
Does XLN always consider different hard drives alone to be "different computers", even when they are ALL in the same physical machine? Is there a way to make the hard drives generic to XLN authorization checker?
