Hero Lab - Getting out of demo mode

[robertcra]

How does one get out of the demo more for this?  4th edition is sadly no longer supported by WoTC (I enjoyed their compendium and character builder, though silverlight sucks).  How can we get to save profiles and unlock any of the other 'bs' of the demo mode?

If you buy Herolab and use your license for the Developer Kit version of it, you'll come out of demo mode.

Hmm.  I have a full license to hero lab, but still can't seem to figure out how to activate this to unlock the demo mode.  And there is no data package to purchase for 4th edition any longer.

If you buy the Authoring Kit Data Package it will allow you to run the 4th Edition Community Files (as well as giving you access to the core Savage Worlds rules).

To add to this if your running windows 10 (I just had an issue) it sometimes updates and cause HL to think you have loaded a new OS which makes it go into demo mode. If you are under the 120 day window then you have to request Lone Wolf to allow you to early update your Licence. Try using Firefox the WoTC silver light seems to run a bit (very little) nicer on it.
