Woo hoo! It worked! I have never had to re-license LC before, but I did it. You generate an offline file, tell LC that you want to re-licence - it than quits. You turn off the internet (I assumed this would avoid confusion), relaunch LC and choose manual activation. Bingo! Thanks to Brian and

Should be able to relicense the IDE.  If it keeps using the wrong one, generate a key for the correct one on the web site and use that to license the product. Thanks, Brian On Apr 11, 2020, 8:29 AM -0400, Graham Samuel via use-livecode , wrote: > Jaque thanks - this has not solved it yet, but

Jaque thanks - this has not solved it yet, but i’m sure you’re on to something. When I delete the revStandaloneSettings, save the stack and re-open it, LC itself simply restores the set to what it was before. If I look closely at the actual properties in the set, I find quite a bit about

Just to add to the mystery, I just imported a stack from Brian Milby, who has been very helpful with other problems of mine. I had a look at the Standalone Settings for his stack, and I can't alter the mobile ones (the desktop ones are not checked in his case), and in particular I can’t open

The three desktop platforms are on by default. You should be able to turn those off. They are incompatible with mobile so they all need to be off before you can select either of the mobile ones. -- Jacqueline Landman Gay | jac...@hyperactivesw.com HyperActive Software |

Thanks for the quick reply. I have the green square! I remember when it turned from red to green. But sadly my standalone settings window remains stubbornly inactive - not frozen: something happens when I click on General, Stacks, Copy files etc, but the next five icons to the right which let
