I have a licensed version of Trados 2017 professional. My laptop is connected to a docking stn and all is well. I connect to my wifi and the VPN at work.

When I disconnect my laptop to work outside of the home, I connect to a new wifi and the VPN as usual. Trados starts up in 'trial' mode and tells me I only have 'xx' days remaining. This is weird cause I can't find the projects I've been working on. I recreate one of the projects and it finds all the translations in the TM.

How can I get Trados to stop doing this when I'm working and not connected to the docking stn.
