Hi All! This a slight sidetrack to the question of the MI trial. Beware that once the Trial period has expired, you will never be able to install a new trial copy. Or if you 'tamper' with the system clock in which case the trial immediately expires. Now, my system sets its clock against a time server at each boot. Does that count as 'tampering'? Or did the v7 beta count as one trial usage? In any case, and for some reason, I am unable to run the trial license because it said my time was up at once. MI staff kindly sent me a new license file, but it had the same content as the one I already had an did not help.
I have searched in vain for the timelock on my disk. It's probably hidden deep somewhere in the registry. Does anyone know where? I am told that our pitiful 'swedish' version is due a couple of weeks away, and I needed the hi-res output in v7 for a particular task. That's why I ask.
