Manually remove demo license from Predator CNC Editor

Manually remove demo license from Predator CNC Editor

Problem

Predator CNC Editor is running in demo mode.

Explanation

A registry key has a demo license, usually in the current user profile, not local machine. 

Solution

You must remove all instances of licenses then enter license again
  1. Go to Registry Editor (search regedit in start menu search)
  2. In the address bar (1), enter HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Predator\Editor
    1. If you see a key (looks like a folder) that says 0.0, this is the demo license so you know you're in the right place
  3. Delete (2) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\VirtualStore\MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Predator
  4. Right click and select Delete (3)
  5. Close the Registry Editor
  6. Run CNC Editor as an administrator by holding shift, right click on the shortcut and click "Run as administrator"
  7. Enter license information
  8. If CNC Editor launches correctly, close and run again, but not as an administrator
