Dick, I had the problem a while ago and the following is what I received
from Razzak. It worked for me and I have had no problems since then
Here's how:
01. Make sure that R:BASE eXtreme 9.0 has been installed when an
Administrator was logged onto the computer. Then make sure
the latest update is applied. http://www.rupdates.com
02. If you are using the Windows 7 x64 operating system, then check
the registry to verify the following entry exists:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\R:BASE Technologies\RBG90
If you are using the x32 operating system, check the registry to
verify the following entry exists:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\R:BASE Technologies\RBG90
03. Then, assign the required Read, Write, Full Control permissions
to all users so that the values can be identified by R:BASE. You
would do so by right clicking on the RBG90 entry and selecting
"Permissions" from the menu.
04. Finally, for the Windows Vista or later operating systems where
User Access Control will be enabled for notifications at any
degree, the License Key entry and product activation must be
performed while the end user is logged on, not the Administrator.
At this point, the License Key will be entered and the activation
process completed.
That's all there is to it!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
P.S. The above instructions are also made available in the R:BASE eXtreme
9.0 Getting Started Guide.

First off... I admit I know NOTHING about the registry, what all it does
or how it works.
What is interesting is that if you regedit on my current machine, and go
to the software keys for RBase, the license key and activation key are
listed there.
If you do the same on our new computers, nothing is there. The only
thing showing is a (default) setting.
That does not seem right to me. We have been talking about permissions,
but if the data is not in the registry,
all the permissions in the world won't work.
Think I shall go home and taste test the Zinfandel !
Tomorrow is another day.
