• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Went to do a nice clean 3.1 reinstall, only to discover I need to reactivate my licence. Anyone have experience of this? How long does it usually take?
 
I've never done this myself but I think LM are quite good about it. To avoid this in future, make sure you perform an uninstall properly, in my experience this avoids you having to contact LM.

I'd heard this before about the uninstall, so I used the original setup file downloaded from LM to uninstall but still had this happen.

I have done an unusually high number of them though to run some tests, so not surprised it happened.

Just have to sit on my thumbs for now;-)

I might reinstall Crysis3 while i'm waiting;-)
 
I believe it is recommended to use the normal Windows control Panel to uninstall the simulator, and not the setup file.
The standard un-installation method will free the licence automatically.
