painter IX.5 error message

[DefectiveDesign]

START>>RUN>>typeREGEDIT Search for all PROTEXIS files [two of them] and DELETE. Be careful that you only delete these files and back-up registry before messing with anything.

yeah, don't do that. instead delete the evil DRM service:

START>>RUN>>type: services.msc

Find the ProtexistLicensing service, stop the service, and disable it


START>>RUN>>type: CMD
type: sc delete ProtexisLicensing



---

I'm not buying the next edition/upgrade of painter if it contains DRM
