License Key Help: https://www.donationcoder.com/Help/2/

Almost always the problem when a license key is not accepted into one of our programs, it means that it was pasted slightly wrong.

If you still have trouble after reading the help pages, email me at [email protected] and i'll try to walk you through any trouble spots.

Bath - this board is for issues relating to entering licences for Donationcoder software. It is not setup to encourage or facilitate the sharing of hacks, cracks, or serialz for shareware.

Email me ([email protected]), I can help.

Note:
The most common problem people have is that they click on a link for a license key for a different program -- the free license key page has different links for each program.

I got the license and to determine the correct use, but the license is invalid.Personally think that since it is free software, why do you need a permit to restrict users? Of course, this the url snooper is the outcome of your hard work, the interests of return have nothing to say.

This thread is interesting from a process/quality improvement perspective, because it is a sort of, or partial, log of process errors.

@mouser: Just out of interest, do you have any idea of the statistics:
(a) Total number of licence key registrations to date.
(b) Total number of failed registrations complained about.
(c) Estimated number of failed registrations not complained about.

If you could calculate: (b)+(c) as a percentage of (a)+(b)+(c)
- then you could use that as the result of human error (assuming that human error is the sole cause).

You might then take a look at the process for issuing/registering licence keys and see if there is any way you might be able to change/improve it to reduce the statistical incidence of human error.
If you cannot see any way to improve the process to achieve that, then a common and effective approach is to automate the process still further.

For example, when I was registering my GOTD PhotoStitcher yesterday, I noticed that:
The download included only 3 files:
  • Activate.exe
  • readme.txt
  • Setup.exe

I opened the readme, ran the Setup, and, whilst PhotoStitcher was still running, I then ran the Activate.
It was all pretty well automated and the registration took place entirely automatically and seemed quite smooth, and afforded little room for human error.

seth, we only offer license keys for the software WE have created, not other software.

sethukumar.spidey, for most of DonationCoder's software it's usually located under the Help menu. Look for About (Enter new license key). Click that and there should be a button on that window to click which will bring up the box to paste in the key.

I still have not figured out just WHERE to paste my license key. I must be dumb, cause I feel like an idiot searching, going in circles trying to figure out just how to drop this darned key somewhere. Whatever happened to the usual license keys you normally come across? :tellme:

Hi Angel.

You're not dumb -- sometimes it can be confusing.  But we try to make up for it in being friendly!

So, we're here to help.

Which program of ours are you trying to put the license key into?

I like FARR but this constantly renewing licence idea seems somewhat sadistic to me. The key passed after 5 attempts!

Something must have gone wrong -- a common problem is that there are different free license keys for the different programs and people sometimes download the wrong one without noticing.

just select all 8 lines, copy to clipboard, then go to program and open the about box and click to enter license key, then click paste button.

Mouser, he says he doesn't know how to paste - so just in-case, I will elaborate a little bit:

I lied...I won't elaborate...I will give a link to people who elaborated:

http://www.wikihow.com/Copy-and-Paste

That shows how to Copy & Paste.
