PgDAC activation after installation of trial version

To activate your PgDAC product after purchasing a license, no additional activation steps are required. However, if you previously installed a trial version of the DAC product, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Uninstall the Trial Version:

    • Use the "Programs and Features" applet in the Windows Control Panel to remove the trial version of the product.
  2. Download the Licensed Version:

    • Log in to your personal account on our website and download the licensed version of the DAC product compatible with your required IDE.
  3. Install the Licensed Version:

    • Install the downloaded licensed version of the product.

To avoid potential integration issues between our components and your IDE, please ensure the installation is performed under the user account used to run the IDE. Additionally, grant this user Administrator privileges for the duration of the installation process.
