Having to reactivate GSX again and again and again
MagisterMilitum:
Greetings, all,
I am dealing with a problem keeping the software activated on my flight-simulator.
The problem involves GSX being in trial mode every time that I start a new scenario in P3D. GSX will always be in trial mode upon start-up. I can activate the software by going to the add-on manager and inputting the license key for BOTH GSX and GSX level 2 (as shown in the attachment below). Then, I restart couatl through the add-on manager. These steps typically lead to activation 95% of the time, but sometimes even these do nothing. However, the active status only lasts only for so long as the current scenario lasts, being only temporary.
I have tried running the both GSX and couatl in administrator mode with no positive outcome. I have ran out of tricks at this point left only with more frustration. It is a wonderful program when it is active, but it has been a pain activating it so that it works properly.
My technical specifications are the following:
GSX version 2.7.2
P3D v4.4
FSLabs A320, FeelThere E170, and so forth
New computer: a dedicated gaming platform with a Nvidia geforce 1060x
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

Try to Deactivate first, and then reactivate again.

All right. I activated GSX level 2, making it active, then I deactivated it and reactivated. Then it says that GSX level 2 will remain in trial mode until GSX is purchased. I bought the software from fspilotshop.
By the way, is it necessary to activate both GSX and GSX level 2, or is it sufficient to activate only GSX level 2 by itself since GSX level 2 is what I own?

From the GSX level 2 product page :
IMPORTANT - This is not a Stand-Alone product! It's an expansion for GSX, which won't work unless GSX is already active.
So you need both activated

Understood, thanks. Thus far, I have done it as such by activating GSX, then GSX level 2. The status changes to ACTIVE. Afterwards I restart couatl, and everything seems to work well. Upon starting a new scenario, GSX again reverts back to trial mode. I know that there is a learning curve to managing complex add-on software such as this, but something does not seem right. If it says that it is active, should it not stay so?
