Hello,
Thank you for your support.
Even after executing according to "Error: 212 or Product Keeps Prompting to Activate", I was unable to activate my Deskscapes 11 license.
I hope there is something we can do.

Thanks,

With that is done you still see the Error 212 popup? If so, please try this steps and check if you have reach max activation, and try to deactivate it to clear a slot for new activation. https://forums.stardock.com/486311/accounts-and-activation-support-faq#deactivateproduct

Hello,

I am not sure about product id but if you wish to know Product details you should be able to view it by right click on DeskscapesConfig.exe and select properties->Details.

Thank you.

Hello,
I really couldn't activate Deskscapes. I think we use enough resources for that purpose.
Thanks for your support.

I can't check you activation status on Stardock. However, I have forward your problem/question to Stardock Support Team for their assistance. Please keep an eye on this thread for any updates. We appreciate your feedback and patience.

Hi Ma_asseproj,

Thank you for posting, and I'm sorry to hear about your issue with activating Deskscapes 11.  As basj has mentioned, typically this method linked here should resolve this issue.  

If you've followed those steps exactly, and you're stilling unable to activate and use your software, it might be necessary to do a full uninstallation/purge of the software.  In doing this, it is important to follow the steps exactly.  You must reboot each time when you are prompted.  It is also important to make sure you reinstall from a fresh download of the software from your Stardock account, to make sure you are using the latest version of the software download available to you.  

Please let us know if you have any questions.  If the above methods don't work, please describe where the activation is failing.  If possible, a screenshot image of any error messages received, or any trouble areas is also always helpful for further troubleshooting.

Thank you and best regards,

Hi Adam,

Thank you for your support.
The link: https://cdn.stardock.us/support/uploads/DSPurgeNew.zip
didn't take me to any address, just an empty screen.
I'm waiting for more information.

Hi Adam,

Hi Adam,

Please disregard the previous answer. The file downloaded silently.
I will carry out the Deskscapes purge procedure.

Thank you.

Hello, Adam,

I carried out the recommended procedure at https://support.stardock.com/space/SHC/1346764874/DeskScapes+purging+and+re-installing, but was unsuccessful.
I was unable to activate Deskscapes 11 and received the same error code: -212.
Note: I've noticed that Stardock doesn't seem to identify my e-mail address xxxxxxx@yahoo.com.br, since every communication that should be sent to it, I don't receive.
On the other hand, I'm sure I'm entering the correct login details.
I await further guidance.

Note: email address removed, please don't post your email address in a public forum.

Thank you,

It might be there is a typo on your email address when purchasing the product, that is probably the reason why your never receive anything. I believe it best if you raise support ticket using the link below, use the "Ask a Question" option. Include all information details. Remember to record down the ticket number for future reference if needed. Do not raise multiple ticket, that will make your ticket back to the end of the line. Send once and wait. Ticket will be answer by the order they send in.
