[flexcoders] Install Professional over Standard

2008-09-19 Thread George
I'm a contractor who owns a copy of FlexBuilder 3.0 Standard Edition.
My client has a license to Professional Edition, that they want me to
install on my laptop.

The problem is that even if I uninstall the Standard Edition and
install the Professional Edition, or I should say try to install the
Professional Edition. It won't let me do it. Since the Standard
Edition was already on the machine it assumes that license, and will
not let me install the Professional Edition without going through an
Upgrade.

Anyone know a way around this? And where the heck is it getting the
license information from if I uninstall the Standard Edition? I
assume that it is in the registry somewhere.

The Professional Edition license is considered to be invalid when I
try to upgrade.

The solution is to update/delete your license.properties file:

 

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application
Data\Adobe\Flex\license.properties

 

Either delete the file (and you'll be prompted to enter a new one when
you open Flex Builder), or just enter your new license key (takes effect
as soon as you open Flex Builder.
