I'm working on my laptop with a "borrowable" license to run SA. Unfortunately, I had eval copies of various products on the machine before which have now expired. The problem is that when I try to start SA, it takes a VERY long time to start (on the order of magnitude of 5 minutes or more), then opens a dialog box and gives me the following messages: -------------------------------------------------------- Feature 'DoDAF (ABM)' expired on 30-Sep-2006 Feature 'DoDAF' expired on 30-Sep-2006 Feature 'Information Web Publisher' expired on 30-Sep-2006 Feature 'iRMA' expired on 30-Sep-2006 Feature 'SA Compare' expired on 30-Sep-2006 Feature 'SA Simulator II' expired on 30-Sep-2006 Feature 'XML Architect' expired on 30-Sep-2006 -------------------------------------------------------- It appears that SA's attempts to secure licenses for these expired evals is what is slowing it up because on another similar computer set up the same way, it opens much faster and even though it displays the same dialog box, there are only a couple of short messages in it. I've done registry searches and searches through installed SA files but didn't find anything that obvious was telling it to even look for these things. Anyone know of a way to remove these items? Thanks!

Hi

You could try the following :-

1. Query this registry key:
    "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\FLEXlm License Manager"
    Look at the path string found in "TELELOGIC_LICENSE_FILE"

2. If the path string contains a pointer to a license file on the
    laptop's local drive, it is probably pointing to the license file
    that expired last September. Use a text editor to look at the
    contents of the license file. If it shows September expiration
    dates, delete the file.

3. Also remove the offending path from the string within the
    above registry entry.

4. Next remove the offending path from the Environment:
    Right-click on "My computer"
    Click on "Properties"
    Click on "Advanced"
    Click on "Environment Variables"
    If "TELELOGIC_LICENSE_FILE" exists, edit the string
        and remove the offending path.

If this does not work - it is probably worth raising a support case - as they may have experienced this type of issue before.

Thanks
Ian
