Learn About Managing Licences for Borland Developer Studio

I'd had a version of Borland Developer Studio on my pc before and had forgotten to remove the license and install the new one. D'oh. That's why I got "You are not licensed to run" type messages.

Worse though was the fact that I could open Turbo C++, but loading projects gave an Access Violation Error. If you get this then you need to run the License Manager and import your new license. Run the License Manager from the Borland Developer Studio/Tools/license Manager menu. Click License then import and browse to where the License Text file was saved out.

Still Got Problems? If you still get problems, disable all licenses (you can re-enable them later) and re-import your emailed license.

You should then see your license and be able to run Turbo C++.
