"Evaluation Expired [153]" upon launching Free Trial version of Studio 2021

Hello Team,

I've just downloaded the Free Trial version of Studio 2021, installed it, and launched it. But I've got the Product Activation pop-up window with the error in the subject line.

I've been redirected to the following article: gateway.sdl.com/.../communityknowledge, which did not solve my problem.

Could anyone please help me figure out how to fix this?

Thank you in advance!

  • I think you just read the automated response incorrectly.  The wording isn't great and the support teams will fix that!  It mean this:

    • You don't have a support contract.
    • But don't worry, we can still help you with licensing and installation requests.
    • If you need a license reset we'll be able to help you within 1 business day.
    • For an installation or other licensing issue it might take a little longer but we'll still help you.
    • If you wish to purchase a support contract and receive support faster then go to.... etc.

    So you can expect to receive help shortly. The teams are busy and will always prioritise work in this order:

    1. customers who pay for a support contract
    2. non-supported customers who need a license reset
    3. non-supported customers with installation and other licensing issues
