If you have a license file, what for do you use the dongle? Jan 17, 2006

It seems your dongle is not recognised.
As you tell, that you have a license file copied to a known destination on your PC, why don´t you simply tell Trados, were it is?

Go to Help, chose About and press "License Manager".
Then chose "Change the license location" and press "Go". Point Trados to the location of your license file et voilá

Hi Jerzy,

You are wonderful. I guess it was as simple as that! Thanks a bunch.
