Title: re-entering license, up to 10 times a day
Post by: srikken on 2017-03-01, 09:46:38

Hi

On one of my render notes I have to re-enter my corona license sometimes up to 10 times a day.
Does someone knows a solution so that that computer will remember my license?

I already have reinstalled 3DS Max and corona, but it didn't solve it. Next step would be a full clean install of windows.

Would be faster to open support ticket: https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/tickets/new

hi, are you using 1.5 hotfix2? It solves a problem that could be causing this

If it doesn't work, try to delete CoronaRenderer folder in your local appdata folder ("C:\Users\YOUR_USERNAME\AppData\Local\CoronaRenderer"). This is a hidden folder so don't forget to display them in the explorer. It worked for me some time ago.

Yes I have installed 1.5 hotfix (a couple of times).  Wil try the appdata folder.
Keep you updated!

Update:
It kept happening after deleting the files from appdata ....
So dit a fresh install of windows and he hasn't asked for a license since! Yeah except when installing corona :)
