What happened is this: I successfully upgraded to the 10.2.16 version, successfully licensed it and carried on with the game that I had been playing before I upgraded. I quit out of the game as normal. But when I re-opened the program to resume playing this morning, it's the demo (i.e., unlicensed) version. There's no "Your license is no longer valid" message; just the demo version prompt screen.
Any insights or solutions? I'd really rather not have to apply for emergency release of my license every time I want to play. 
Don't know if this is significant, but the OOTP 10 application icon in my directory has a circle-slash through it.
Thanks for your help! |
My first thought is that your OOTP application is damaged. This sort of thing has not been happening lately, with the patches, but I suspect it is still possible. If you are comfortable with downloading the game again, installing it some place else, and then dragging just the application to your existing OOTP folder (to replace the one that is in there), that is what I would try first. It's hard to guess what the status of your license situation is, but it sounds like you know how to recover that if it's tied up.
