Resetting Activation
Resetting activation is required when you have lost the copy protection because the
activation file is damaged (hard drive crash, file corruption on the hard drive, etc.). In
this case, read and familiarize yourself with the procedures below, locate the Master
disk for your software, then contact Rockwell Software Technical Support at (414) 321-
4266. You will want to be at an IBM compatible computer when you call Technical
Support. In an emergency, you can use the Master disk as a keydisk until you are able
to reset the activation files.
