Ok this is goofy. I just bought the lightburn software (never had a cutter/engraver before to need it) and have 1 copy on my laptop and 1 on my desktop. The one on my laptop always said about the trial period and it ending but the desktop one never did. I put my newly bought license into the laptop one and everything seems fine but my desktop one says it is registered also…how can that be? I never input the license. I don’t know if I should uninstall lightburn and reinstall it to see if it fixes it or what. Any help is appreciated!!
Unless you only have to register the one version and then the other is auto done if it is on the same network…
It’s showing as already activated and good to go or it’s saying that it can’t accept the license because you’ve already exhausted all your activations?
Is it possible you’re still on a valid trial license on the desktop and it just hasn’t yet expired? You should not need to reinstall in any case. You should be able to update the license key as-is.
That is what I see even though I never activated the license on this computer only the laptop. I though I used the same lightburn from the creality usb drive and just updated to the newest version…
That’s odd indeed, especially since Emblaser is included in that which is only available from Emblaser directly.
A full uninstall and reinstall with a direct download from LightBurn may be in order in case there’s any question as to the original source of the file.
[EDIT]
I just checked the LightBurn version (1.0.06) included on Creality’s site and it’s a binary match to official LightBurn release. So not sure if that’s the same file included on the USB drive but if it is then I don’t think that’s the source of the anomaly.
Ok I reinstalled and it let me put my license key in right after so I think that fixed it…and now that license link you sent me says 2/2 for licenses!! WOOHOO!!! really weird though…oh and now it just says GCODE instead of all that other stuff too.
