Action |

Click End to close the activation window. |

2 |
Navigate to the directory of the fspro.lic file as shown in the error message (usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Information Mapping\FS Pro 5.0\Data or C:\Program Files\Information Mapping\FS Pro 5.0\Data).
Note: You may need admin-rights to perform the following steps (especially step 5). |

Right-click the fspro.lic file and select Properties. |

If the file is Read-only, uncheck the Read-only checkbox on the General tab. |

Activate FS Pro 2013 again. |
