LOL! @ Rob. I got the secondary license working for my laptop for the Pathfinder set! I'm stoked! Now, I just need to wait on my request to un-fubar the primary license.

Please delete this thread! I don't want potential customers reading this and assuming that your product is clunky....when I was the one causing the problem.

Actually the fact that the customer support was prompt and polite is a bigger win in my book actually and the thread should be left to show this. Also the fact that their have been two threads about Activation sense I joined a year ago also shows that it is 99% flawless in it's use. This again shows that is nearly perfect which is almost unheard of in the software industry.
On top of that HL license lets you re-install onto a new computer every 120 days is also VERY generous as I can't even think of another software that does that. The fact is that people think that they can buy one copy and share it with their whole gaming group means that software activation is needed. The fact that they say this stuff right in front of the WL guys at their booth at GenCon shows how little thought their is in stealing software. So until some better idea comes along we are left with the need for software activation if a company wants to stay in business.

So, as I understand it. I can activate HL on my laptop and desktop in the initial license, and then pay a fee (think I saw $10 somewhere) and gain a third license to install on my secondary laptop (which is currently in use by my son). Is this correct, or did I misread something somewhere and I am being an idiot?

That's correct. The first two licenses are included, the third and fourth are $10 each. The 2nd-4th are obtained within HL, after you've gotten your first license set up (in the License menu, select the "Manage License..." option).

If you purchase and additional secondary license (your third total license), you will then repeat the above process to have the third license number issued to you. Then you can utilize the third license number on the third computer. |

I should have mentioned that, but yes that was the way I had understood it. I already have my second license, got it pretty quickly but was concerned about the third pc in my household. Jonathan M.

I just bought a Pathfinder License today and am having the same issue.
I ran the internet connection diagnostic as described above and got the attached error message. Do you know what I should do to fix this? |
