DonationCoder.com Software > Find And Run Robot
License Key is Invalid
thudspeth:
I entered the license key as stated, but received the following error:
Failed to save license key information; check to see if you have permission to write to the application directory.
mouser:
i apologize for the trouble -someone else just reported a similar bug to me yesterday.. what program are you using? did you use the installer to install it? is the program in some location that might be causing the confusion? I will have to add a message reporting where it is trying to save the file so that we can identify the problem.
once you tell me which program this is i can tell you how to set the license key manually using a file, and i will make an improved version which may help us know what the problem is. feel free to email me directly for more help ([email protected]).

I'm also having the same problem. Its for the great FindAndRunRobot application. I used the key on my copy that is at work. I used the same key for my home copy. I got the same error. Do I need to donate again and get a 2nd key? BTW great work on that app. Any help would be useful.
mouser:
you do not need to donate again!
and this is same program reported by others having trouble - there must be a bug in how it's saving the key.
i'll have to check into it this weekend and release an update.
until then here is your solution. this will work:
here is how you can save the license key manually in the meantime:
0. exit Find and Run Robot from the system tray.
1. create a text file with the following name:
DonationCoder_findrunrobot_Key.dat
2. put your license key (which will be several lines long and
start with *r1; into that file.
3. save the file in the Find and Run Robot directory
(usually C:\Program Files\Find and Run Robot)
note that this license key can be moved between machines, etc. and it's presence will register the program so you don't have to manually enter the key when installing it on a new computer.
again, sorry for the troubles - i will try to find the problem and release an update asap.

I'll try that tonight when I get home. Thanks for the quick response!
