Hi everyone,
I’m currently running StarWind version 8.5 RC and just received a notice saying my license will expire in 5 days, advising me to contact support. Has anyone gone through this process recently?
What are the steps I need to take to renew or extend the license gunspin?
Appreciate any guidance—thanks in advance!

Reach out to the person who shared the key with you originally for more options.
The only viable option is going perpetual as you cannot arm the free anymore. Yet, you can discuss it with the account manager and see if the trial can be extended for your use case.

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll reach out to the person who shared the key and also check in with the account manager to see if an extension might be possible in my case.

You are always welcome :)
P.s. Ask if you are eligible for NFR. That's a longer trial license.
