Hello Gerrit,

Well, it actually says the "Token has been unplugged" whatever that
means. On both the USB sticks I've tried it on, I only deleted the old
files. I haven't changed the formatting in any way and the disc volume
name is still the same on both of them.

I do indeed. This time I copied the activation key so that I could use
it without decreasing my number of activations left. The first time I
installed Voyager I didn't, mainly because I didn't see the number of
usages one had left but also because I thought that each reinstallation
would need an new activation key.

GK> My token serial number was like FAT-xxxxxxxx (can be FAT32-xxxxxxxx)

Where do you find that? All I got was the activation key, nothing about
a token serial number. In fact I'd never heard of the need for a token
before I had the trouble today.

GK> Please Note that I assume that you saved your token

No. Never thought that I'd need to do that. By the way, is the token the
same as the activation key? I'm a bit lost here. Thought that, on each
reinstallation, one would need a new activation key.

That might be the problem. I reactivated with a new activation key.

Big problem. As I've said, I didn't save the original activation key.
:-(  But then I didn't either of my USB sticks.

That's going to be the solution I think but what do I put in instead of
the crosses in the command line?

"Usage: volumeid <driveletter:>xxxx-xxxx"

I'm not clueless with PCs by any manner of means but a mail programme
that is supposed to appeal to the general public shouldn't really have
complicated problems like this :-(
