Fact you are not entering a password doesn't mean much.

If the user account running the License Wizard was really the same with the same permission of the one you are running GSX, it would work. This solution is confirmed to work, read the previous posts, you are the one and only saying it doesn't.

The only thing that im forced to run as admin is the updater.

And that's precisely why you need to run the License Wizard in non-admin mode, because the Installer/updater only activate the license for the admin user.

I followed what raging lighting did and I got it to work, but then the next day it was back in trial mode.

Then that user is not the same as the one you run GSX with, or the simulator, or you changed the Couatl64_MSFS.exe properties to run as admin. One way or the other, they are not the same user/permission.

Wouldn't be so much easier if you just GAVE your user admin permissions ? You obviously have full access to your system so, why are you making your life unnecessarily complicated by running with a limited permission account ?

It's not for "some reason", you must have managed to activate it correctly now.

Then you must have done it correctly today.
