I think it generated from the cpu or hard drive ser #

My question to Altronics is why it went to expire mode. If it

Check the compatibility of the RaceWork software with Windows 10.

Have you talked to Fred at Altronics about this. I have their software as well and he will send you an update if you are current with your membership. When ever I have issues his updates have fixed it. He is usually very helpful. Give him a call or send an e mail to them. He will respond quickly.

Yes. I talked to Fred about this. He told me that with the windows update
I would have to update their software to current version also. I gave in and payed the 99$ for a new key. Just for fun I used the new key with the old software version (1.460). And guess what the software runs. So the old software will run with the new windows update.

I was told the software doesn’t expire.
I am not happy and feel like I was had for ransom.

With the 99$ I can upgrade to the latest verison and I get 1 yr
Support. But probably won’t need it for 13 months
