    By using this link:

    http://help.grapecity.com/componentone/NetHelp/c1studiowinforms/webframe.html#ComponentOneStudioLicenseandKeys.html

    I have activated the key we payed for.

    The output message is: “Your license has been activated”

    But yet when I run any application the ComponentOne Evaluation popup appears,

    Though now it appears only one time on each run, and not several times.

    Any help will be appreciated

    Hello,

    The evaluation message pop up appears in the following two cases:

    1. Your system does not have a valid license key for the controls.
    2. The entries of the licenses.licx file do not match with the controls used in the application.

    In your case, it seems that the licenses file either doesn’t exist, contains wrong information, or is not configured correctly.

    First, try a full rebuild (Rebuild All from the Visual Studio Build menu). This will usually rebuild the correct licensing resources.

    The entry for every C1 control used in the application at design time or run time should be present in the licenses.licx file of the project. If you have added controls at runtime, drag and drop the controls on the form to generate their corresponding entries in the licenses.licx file and then you may delete the controls. You can also use the LicxGenerator to generate a licenses.licx file for your application. You can learn more about the same using the below mentioned blog post:

    Is the solution with which this project is showing this nag screen, consisting of other projects too? If yes, then we would like to inform you that every project that consists of ComponentOne components should contain a licenses.licx file with valid entries for all the C1 controls used in the project.

    For complete list of entries, you may refer the following URL:

    If this does not solve your problem, we request you to share with us the below mentioned details:

    1. The entries in your licenses.licx file
    2. The screenshot of the evaluation message pop up.

    Best Regards,

    Esha
