    install licence name to newly installed mach3mill program

    Dear Sirs,
    hello from Austria. As a totally nuts in cnc matters I kindly ask for help, please.
    My current issue is:
    I got a new computer to run my cnc router. Therefore I have installed and setted up the Mach3 program.
    I work pretty well, but it stops at line 500, as it is now recognized only as a demo-version.
    I found the mach1lic.dat file on my installation disc.
    I copied and pasted that file to my newly installed Mach3 program, but still it is not recognized as a full license version.
    Anyone can tell me what do I wrong? Please.
    Many thanks for your time and help,
    greetings from Austria,
    Manfred

    Did the old license have your name in it, or someone else's?
    If it's a pirated license, it won't work in newer versions of Mach3.

    Hi,
    many thanks for your attention.
    Yes, the Mach3 progam had my name and license no. on it and I could see both under "Help" - pulldown menue.
    Now, after installing that program to my new computer it only shows DEMO mode and license no. under the same section.
    I am so desperate.

    Thanks for any hint,
    Manfred

    Make sure you copy the file into the \Mach3\ main folder.
    If that doesn't work, contact [email protected]
