Title: License Problem with Material Editor
Post by: eaglerulez on 2014-07-19, 01:26:05
Hi There,

I was trying out Corona last night and it was working wonderfully, and then randomly this afternoon I went to open up my material editor and I get a message stating

"Exception: please report at http://forum.corona-renderer.com: Corona licence is required for this operation"

and then when I close that out I get a message saying "Corona licence is required for this operation" and I get about 6 each of these messages while the material editor populates with black/blank images.

Is there any explanation for why this is happening?

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Corona multiple times, and nothing has changed with my computer since using the renderer last night.

I have same problem. Version 7.1. All was ok until I've corrected time on this computer. I think it's a special blocking function to prevent using corona after december, 2014 by changing time.
But what I have to do now? Reinstall windows or go back to future and buy corona license? )

Just hit this exact problem after correcting time (changing time zone) on a new install Win 7.

Could be a very major problem for future users if this is not corrected.
