BaccS 4 licence suddenly in DEMO mode

Hi,

Suddenly my version of BACCS 4.1.4.0. has become DEMO. I can't create new jobs and I see DEMO in the top bar.

If I'm not mistaken, my BaccS Desktop single user freelance licence, purchased in January 2019, should be valid until 2022 (I didn't buy it through ProZ).

Why did it suddenly become DEMO?

The only change I made in these last days was updating my company name in the settings, could this be the reason?

I just added "company name" and left the first and last names unchanged. I also tried to copy and paste again the licence code and to delete the company name field but DEMO version is still active.

Can you please help me?

I wasn't very lucky because I bought the license in January 2019 and after 3 months the software becames SDL and all the updates/direct support were missing.

I hope to receive support even if my licence is not linked to SDL (by the way I am also a Studio user) and to be able to use Baacs again at least until the end of the licence validity because I am (was) very happy with it.


Best regards from Italy
