Activation error 205

from Stardock Forums

Hi - i get an activation error 205 when trying to activate my object desktop products.

I raised a support call - but the only response to that was an automated one - so i thought i would try here.

Any idea how i can fix this?

So incase that did include a hypen I changed the machine name - still 205 error. Changed it back - still no good.

Any better ideas?

Also - why does your support desk take more than a day too respond?

What basj replied with is correct.  I would recommend that you change the PC name to only Western letters or numbers and see if that resolves your issues.
