Activation

Our paid software comes with an activation wizard that can perform both online and offline activations.

Activation is required on first use of the software, and again after the computer undergoes significant changes such as operating system upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 10.

Online activation

If the computer is connected to the internet, online activation is offered by default. Just type in activation code and click Activate:

Online activation, step 1

On successful activation, that will result in Success screen:

Online activation, step 2

Click Close and you’re done.

Should online activation fail for any reason, try again in a few minutes. If still unsuccessful, use offline activation instead.

Offline activation

Offline activation is an alternative way of software activation, intended as a backup when online activation doesn’t work or when activation is required on a PC that is not connected to the internet.

Offline activation is offered automatically when no internet connection is detected. It can also be manually triggered by disconnecting the internet for a moment.

Start by filling out Activation Code field:

Offline activation, step 1

Click Activate. Once no internet connection is found, connection error window pops up:

Offline activation, step 2

Click Yes.

The wizard then generates activation request file that you should transfer to an internet-connected computer and email to us:

Offline activation, step 3

Limitations

Unless stated otherwise, all software can be used on two different computers at the same time. This means that the software can be installed and used, for example, on a desktop PC and a laptop.

Activations are limited to five, replenished every 14 days. This means that you can activate the software on five reconfigured or new computers every 14 days, but only the latest two activations will remain valid.

If you are testing different configurations and find yourself out of activations, email support@flightsim.ee and we will replenish them manually.
